Bill Gorrow completed his fourth season as the head coach at Wesley College in 2012.
His first year in 2009 resulted in 11 wins, the most for the program since the 2000 season.

In 2010, he coached the CAC Rookie of the Year and another All-CAC pick and one more all-conference performer in 2011 for seven in his three years with the Wolverines.
The honors add to an already impressive resume for Gorrow. He won the 1998 NJCAA National Championship and has spent 24 seasons as a head coach, winning a total of 199 games.
"We had several outstanding candidates for position," Wesley College Executive Director of Sport & Recreation Mike Drass noted. "Through process it became evident that Coach Gorrow was the most qualified for the job. We look forward to a bright future with Bill Gorrow as our head coach."

2000, 1998, 1996 and 1994. In 1998, Anne Arundel would claim the

college Coach of the Year in 1999. In addition, he was named the
