The five-time PSUAC Coach of the Year has a career record of 247-123 and most recently won the 2025 PSUAC Tournament title with a win over Penn State DuBois 75-67.

A Franklin County native and athlete, Jack Schenzel has been coaching for nearly two decades, with some of that time spent at the high school level and the last 12 years at the collegiate level. In 1995, Schenzel began his basketball coaching career as the Junior Varsity Head Coach at Shippensburg Area High School. He then moved on to the women’s program at his alma mater, Shippensburg University as the Assistant Coach for six seasons before his appointment here at Penn State Mont Alto.

A 1995 graduate of Shippensburg University, Schenzel was a four-year member of the track and field team where he was a two-time All-ECAC and All-PSAC selection as a junior and senior. During his career, the Red Raiders won three PSAC Championships in 1992, 1993 and 1995.
