Mike Lohneis
Treasurer / 16U Head Coach (Force)
Mike Lohneis’ passion for basketball started in a small town in Illinois when he made the 6th grade school team. After playing one season in Illinois, his family moved to Montgomery County, MD, where he continued playing on his middle school and high school teams in Rockville, MD. After graduating high school he was asked by the Varsity Head Coach to coach the JV High School Summer League team, which he did for two years.
In 2005, Mike began coaching again when his oldest son started playing in Central Loudoun Basketball League (CLBL) and he has not stopped since then. He has enjoyed much success coaching in two different age groups in CLBL having won multiple season and tournament championships. Mike was selected by CLBL to coach the 7th and 8th grade All-Star team in the local HUSSA Tournament in 2010 and 2011, winning second place in 2010 and first place in 2011.
Mike was also an Assistant Coach for the Simpson Middle School Travel team in 2008 which won the regular season championship. From 2010 - 2013, he was selected as the Head coach for the Simpson Middle School Travel team having tied for the regular season championship in the 2010 – 2011 season. Mike was asked by another AAU travel organization to start two different AAU age groups (the first in 2007 and the second in 2009) where he served as Head Coach on both teams. Mike has also coached with the Loudoun Lightning Organization, which in the summer of 2011 provided over 40 rising freshman players, mostly in the Leesburg area, a chance to continue to develop their basketball skills before trying out for their respective high school teams.
Mike is the Treasurer for the Loudoun Xtreme Basketball Club (LXBC) and Head Coach of the Loudoun Xteme Force team. Mike continues to pass on his love for the game of basketball to the youth of Loudoun County through teamwork, fundamentals, dedication and hard work. His belief is to build character, integrity and respect amongst his players while on and off the court, emphasizing that the most important aspect of playing any team sport is to HAVE FUN!!!
