Nathan Teymer
Head Coach
Coach Teymer enters his third
season at the helm of the Hornet women’s basketball program. In his
second season Coach Teymer helped guide the Lady Hornets to an 18-14
overall record, which was an improvement of 13 wins from the year
before. The 2005-06 Hornets also finished 3rd in the
Southern State Athletic Conference improving on their 10th
place finish during the 2005-06 campaign.
Teymer brings with him a strong academic/athletic philosophy. Teymer says, “For our team to excel on the basketball floor we need to have them excel in the classroom as well. Southern Polytechnic State University is an outstanding institution of higher learning and if we recruit players that have the ability, desire, and work ethic to graduate from this university then we will also have a basketball team that would be very hard to beat.”
Prior to his arrival on the Southern Polytechnic campus coach Teymer spent two seasons at Shorter College (Rome, Georgia) as assistant men’s basketball coach. Teymer also had assistant coaching stints at Georgia Southwestern State University (Americus, Georgia) and Grand View College (Des Moines, Iowa).
Teymer was also a four year standout for the Grand View College basketball team from 1995 to 1999. Coach Teymer received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Secondary Education from Grand View in 1999. In 2002, he received his Master’s of Education in Health and Physical Education from Georgia Southwestern.
