Meet Louis S. Reynaud, TSG's President, a Bay Area native who brings more than just an impressive resume to the table.
Sure, he's got the stats that turn heads: over 30 years shaping young talent, 23+ years coaching Division 1 basketball including stints at Cal, Rice, and UC Santa Barbara, an NIT Championship trophy, and a remarkable record of seeing 90% of his student-athletes graduate. He's been a Dean of Students, an Associate Director managing university centers, even walked the beat as an Oakland police officer. That diverse path built a unique leader – disciplined, community-focused, and deeply invested in people.
But here's what the stat sheet doesn't tell you:
Lou's the kind of guy who attacks a challenge with the same focus he brings to the golf course (a passion honed since his days coaching Varsity golf). He appreciates the heat – whether it's the pressure of a championship game or just some extra spice on his food. And don't be surprised if you catch him moving when a good beat drops; there's an energy in him that's infectious.
He's a "people person" to his core, a "servant leader" whose philosophy isn't just about winning games, but building character and ensuring success long after the final buzzer. He believes in the power of presence and example, knowing that true leadership is about "what the teachers are themselves".
That blend of world-class experience, genuine passion, Bay Area grit, and a touch of spice? That's Lou Reynaud. He's not just leading TSG; he's bringing his whole self to the game, ready to champion talent with integrity, energy, and a unique perspective that makes you want to pull up a chair and hear more.
