Chris Ramer
|
Ramer begins his 15th season as the head coach of the Stevenson University women's basketball team. He is the only head coach in the history of the program.
Ramer started the program from scratch in 1995, barely able to field a team. He began that first season with only five players - none of whom had any basketball experience. The program's inaugural game was a 105-25 loss to College of Notre Dame. The players, however, stuck it out and completed the year managing two wins.
In his 2005-2006 season, Ramer led the team to its highest record in the program history: 20-7. In 2006-2007, the team finished 12-4 in the conference and won the 8th Legg-Mason Winter Classic defeating Medgar Evers 58-45 and Wayensburg, 48-43.
Ramer is a 1971 graduate of Towson. He began the Towson Rec Council girls basketball program in 1970 and was involved with the program for 27 years. He also began the Towson Tornadoes AAU girls program in 1990 and expanded from one team to 18 teams as the Maryland Tornadoes over the next 13 years.
Ramer was a physical education teacher in the Baltimore County school system for 29 years. He retired from teaching and now works full-time as Assistant Athletic Director and Athletic Facilities Manager at Stevenson. He and his wife reside in Towson.

Jeremy Munson

Munson enters his third season as an assistant under head coach Chris Ramer and his 10th overall at the Division III level.
Prior to coming to Stevenson, Munson was an assistant for the Waynesburg women's basketball team for five seasons following a one-year stint with the Waynesburg men's team. During that time, he helped rebuild a program that had six-straight losing seasons before his arrival.
During Munson's tenure, the Yellow Jacket women won 51 games, more than doubling its previous five-season win total. The team also won its first conference and playoff game which hadn't happened in the previous eight seasons.
Munson also coached and recruited five all-conference players including two 1,000-point scorers, including Rachel Dillion, who fell one assist shy of breaking the school's all-time assist record and Candice Eyerman, who holds every shooting record in Waynesburg history. Candice was also an alternate for the NCAA AT&T Long Distance Shootout as a senior, the only Division III player selected.
Under Munson, Waynesburg had two teams ranked in the top-15 all-time in Division III for three-point field goals per game. In 2003, the Yellow Jackets averaged 9.8 per game (8th) and the 2004 team averaged 9.1 per game (12th).
In 2003, at age 21, Munson became the youngest coach to ever coach and record a win in the history of the Presidents' Athletic Conference with a victory over Frostburg State.
Munson also works for the Office of Residence Life at Stevenson as one of the school's full-time resident directors.
