Andy Bucheit is set to begin his 11th season at the helm for Heidelberg University in 2023. Coach Bucheit played 4 years of college basketball at Wittenberg University, and began his college coaching journey as a volunteer assistant to legendary coach Bill Brown, at his alma mater in 2005. The following year, the Cincinnati, Ohio native became a graduate assistant at Ashland University, where he worked under Coach Roger Lyons for two seasons before being hired as an assistant coach at Marietta College in 2008.
