Former Greene County High School basketball standout Trey Hinote recently accepted the JV men’s basketball coaching job at Dordt University in Sioux Center, IA. Hinote graduated in May 2023 from Dordt after playing basketball there for Jim Van Haften.

Hinote, who has a full-time job at a Sioux Center bank, talked with Raccoon Valley Radio about how the job offer came about. “It was actually kind of surprising. It was just a normal day at work when Van Haften came in and sat down with me, and offered me the job right there at work. He gave me a couple days to think about it and I talked to my Dad and a few other people, and they said it was a “no-brainer” and that’s how that decision came about.”

He added it’s a great opportunity and one that many people never get, so he’s enthused about coaching on the college level at the school he graduated from, and with his college coach. Trey is the son of Jeramie and Heather Hinote of Jefferson.
