Wiley Wildcats Hartsfield named men’s head basketball coach

MARSHALL, Texas  --  Wiley College announced its new head basketball coach at a press conference Monday afternoon. That new head coach is Jameus Hartsfield, who will be moving up from assistant coach to head coach. He’ll be replacing Andre Payne who recently accepted a job at Mississippi Valley State University.

He’ll be taking over a team that finished the 2013-2014 season with an overall record of 25-7 and 13-5 in Red River Athletic Conference play. They finished the season as conference champions.

Hartsfield is optimistic about the season up ahead and says he fully anticipates it to be a smooth transition from one coach to another.

“We’re getting almost all of our guys back from last year and we’ve added height to our team,” he said. “I’ll be working on establishing myself and getting our guys used to hearing my voice and familiar with my game plan, but other than that, it will be a very smooth transition.”
