Scott Corey - Head Boys Varsity Basketball Coach
2023-2024 Season: Scott led the Bereans to a 9-9 record, their first .500 record since the 2018-2019 season. That record was good for 6th place, in which they lost to the two time defending regional champions, Forest Hills. Coach Corey had one all-conference player on his team this season.
2022-2023 Season: Coach Corey led a turnaround in the boys basketball program. After a 1-15 finish in the 21-22 season, the team went 7-11, good for 5th place in the Boys Class D South Region. They went to lose their quarterfinal game against #5 Seacoast Christian.
April 29, 2022: The athletic department at Temple Academy is pleased to announce the return of Scott Corey as Head Coach of the Varsity Boys Basketball team. Coach Corey is a godly man who brings great experience and leadership to the program.
Scott took his first coaching gig back in 1980, where he slowly climbed the ranks in the Maine basketball world. After coaching the JV girls at Erskine Academy for 6 years, he took the reins of the varsity girls program, in which he was at the helm for 19 years. He put together many strong years in that stretch, most notably the 2008 season in which he was named Coach of the Year by the Morning Sentinel, Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference-Class B, and Maine Association of Basketball Coaches. He coached in the Maine McDonald’s All-Star Game in 2008 and 2020.
Following his tenure at Erskine, Coach Corey took lead of the boys program at Temple in the winter of 2018. In his first year, Scott compiled a record of 13-5 and lead the team to a Southern Maine Regional Final appearance. After losing many key players, he followed up with an 8-10 record and a semi-final appearance. While the on-court success was great, more importantly, Scott helped turn around the culture of the boys basketball program.
We're excited to have Coach Corey back for his second stint at Temple!
