Let me briefly introduce you to Coach Mike Hilmer.
Coach Hilmer has been the head varsity boys coach at North Linn HS for the past 25 years.
He created his Relentless Pressure System which involves Run, Jump, and Trapping philosophy. And over the past 9 years has had unprecedented success with it, including:
7 Straight State Finals Appearances
3 State Titles
National High School Coach Of The Year Finalist 2019
5 Time State Coach Of The Year
It hasn't always been this way for Coach Hilmer. Before he began using his pressure system, his teams were right around .500
In fact, for the first 16 years as the Varsity Head Coach his teams:
Averaged less than 50 ppg
Averaged 12+ TO per game
For the last 9 years since installing his Relentless Pressure System his teams:
Scored 80+ ppg
Average less than 8 TO pg
Increased FG % from 41% to 56%
Led the state in scoring average 5 years, and were runner up twice
Defensively they led the state twice in fewest points allowed and every year have been in the top10 for fewest points allowed
Yes... you read that right! He led the state in offense AND defense
