Mike Boschee, entering his eighth season at Central College, was named the 2010 Iowa Conference coach of the year after guiding the Dutch to their 16th league championship and their ninth NCAA Division III tournament berth, the most of any Iowa Conference school.
When Boschee took the helm in 2003, he inherited a squad that had endured back-to-back 5-21 campaigns, but he steadily turned the Dutch program around, restoring it to its traditional role as a championship contender. His squads posted a 50-28 record over the past three seasons and Central set a school season wins record in 2009-10 with a 23-5 mark. The Dutch were 14-2 in league play, taking the crown by a four-game margin.
Central's 2010 title was its first in 15 seasons and its first outright crown since 1985.

Boschee remains North Dakota's all-time career free throw percentage leader (88.0), leading the nation in 1988-89 (92.8).

The Gusties posted a 221-83 record in that span, and made seven NCAA Division III playoff appearances, reaching the national title game in 2003. He also served as the Gustavus Adolphus head women's golf coach, earning coach of the year honors from the Minnesota Women's Collegiate Golf Association in 1998 and from the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in 2000 and 2003.
