Coaching Bio
Coach Outman is in his ninth season coaching basketball at Wellsboro after spending the past 8 season as the head coach. Coach Outman is a 1983 graduate from Cowanesque Valley High School where he played three years of varsity basketball for the Indians and is currently the all-time leading scorer with 1,504 points. Coach Outman was also a two-time Twin Tiers All-Star, NTL West League Co-MVP, and a Tioga County Hall of Fame inductee.
After graduating high school, Coach Outman attended East Stroudsburg University where he played basketball for three years while earning a B.S. degree in Health/Physical Education. He then returned to the area and started his coaching career at Cowanesque Valley High School where his teams competed for both a league and district title.

After his tenure at Elkland, Coach Outman returned to Wellsboro where he became the head coach of the Wellsboro Middle School team for the next eight years before accepting the varsity position in 2010.
Over the past eight years Coach Outman's teams have compiled a 167-39 record while winning five NTL championships, three straight, and two District IV runner-up titles. In 2017-18, Coach Outman guided the Hornets to their second District IV championship in school history.
