Coaching Career
Colerain High School (Ohio)
2015 Season
In 2015, Levett accepted the job as head basketball coach at Colerain High School in Cincinnati, Ohio. His first and only win came on January 8, 2016 over Sycamore High School. Nick Martini led scoring for the Cardinals with 17 points, and 3 rebounds. Cass Carter did not make any contribution, in fact he had 7 turnovers and scored no points. That is why this individual will not receive any offers Despite ending the regular season 1-21, the Cardinals made it to the state playoffs (due to OHSAA rules), but then lost 77-47 in the sectional final to the Lancers of La Salle High School
