We are excited to welcome Coach Furtado to COMMERCE! Coach Kevin Furtado is currently the K-3 PE Director at Greene county Primary school. In 2021 1st season at Walnut Grove H.S in Loganville, GA. He rebuilt the WGHS Girls Basketball into a winning tradition. Finished the season with the First Winning Record in school history at 18-11. He was voted the Walton county Girls Basketball COY. Before that he built Lake Oconee Academy Girls Basketball into one of the premiere girls basketball programs in the GHSA A public school classification. He started the program in 2016 in its first year of existence for the program. They gradually got better as they went from 3 wins in his first year to a 21 win season and to the 2nd round of the state tournament last season. In the 2020-21 season they won their Region Championship and finished the season at 25-1, losing in the Elite 8. He started his coaching career in 1990 at Amelia Academy in Amelia, Virginia as Athletic Director, Head Girls and Boys Basketball coach and head softball coach. He has amassed over 485 career wins and 290 losses in both the GISA and GHSA school system leagues. His teams have been to 4 GISA final fours in girls basketball, 4 Region championships in GISA . He is known for his ability to take struggling programs and build them into competitive winning programs. In 1997, he took over a struggling LaGrange Academy Girls Basketball team who had 4 wins in the previous season, to a final 4 appearance in 1998 at Georgia college in Milledgeville, GA. He is very proud of his current assistant coach Lizzy Holt who played for him in 2016-2019 at LOA is now his current assistant coach. In addition, one of his former players Coach Julie Brooker is the current Girls softball coach at Alexander HS. He feels that the impact he had on shaping the lives of his former players is more important than the wins. "It's how they think about you 20 years down the road is the true sign of your coaching" says Coach Furtado.
