Jeremy Monceaux comes to Faulkner University after two seasons at Campbellsville University in Kentucky. During his first season with the Tigers in 2009-10, Monceaux helped guide the Tigers to their first Mid-South Conference regular season title and an NAIA Tournament appearance in 2009-10. The Tigers finished with a Top 10 ranking in the NAIA.
At Faulkner, Monceaux's primary responsibilities will involve recruiting, the scouting of opponents and on-court coaching, specifically working with the Eagles' backcourt.
Prior to moving to Kentucky, Monceaux served the 2008-09 season as an assistant coach at Shelton State Community College in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The Shelton State Bucs completed a 32-4 season by winning the Alabama Community College Conference Regular Season Championship and Region XXII Tournament Championship en route to a Top 10 national ranking and trip to the NJCAA Division I National Tournament.
Monceaux, a native of Birmingham, Ala., graduated in 2002 from Parkway Christian Academy, a Class 1A school. While at Parkway Christian, Monceaux set, and still holds, many records for boys' basketball in the Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA), including single-season points (1,333), career points (4,555), single-season field goals made (458) and single-season free throws made (427). During his career, he became only the third Alabama high school player to ever collect 1,000-plus assists with 1,035. He also holds the record for the most 50-point games (20) and is the only player in AHSAA history to average 36-plus points per game in three straight years, doing so from 1998-2001 (40.4, 40.4, 36.8).
After his days at Parkway Christian, Monceaux played collegiate basketball at NCAA Division I Liberty University of the Big South Conference. He was named to the Big South All-Freshman Team in 2002-03 and was part of the 2003-04 Big South championship team which received an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. His career was cut short due to injury. He returned to his home state and earned a Bachelor of Science in education from the University of Alabama in 2008.
He and his wife Madeline, a nurse at Baptist Medical Center East, reside in Montgomery.
