Ken Partridge began his long-time tenure at UIndy in the 1966-67 season before joining the GLVC as a charter member in 1978-79, where his team finished first in the league’s inaugural slate. He followed with 10 other first-place finishes and four runner-up results. In 1987-88 he won his first of 10 GLVC Coach of the Year accolade and repeated as such the next five seasons, including a nod as the NCAA D-II District 4 Coach of the Year in 1988-89. His Greyhounds twice finished second in the NCAA District tournament in 1990-91 and 1994-95, while the following year the format changed from district to regional where Partridge guided his squad to its first NCAA Regional win despite placing fourth in GLVC competition in 1995-96. That kick started another three years of GLVC Coach of the Year selections from 1996-97 to 1998-99, while his 10th and final award as the league’s top headman was in 2001-02. In his 28 years at the helm, Partridge mentored 44 players to All-GLVC recognition and six to GLVC Player of the Year distinction. Additionally, seven of his players were named All-Americans 14 times, including three that were three-time winners.
