        Coach Brooke Knight’s very spirit embodies two terms: team-first and champion. As a head baseball coach, his teams have experienced tremendous success. He led the Perth Heat to back-to-back Australian Baseball league championships in 2011 and 2012, and his squads have raised the trophy five times in his ten years as the skipper of the Corvallis Knights in the West Coast League (2008, 2011, 2013, 2016, and 2017), making the playoffs every season. A five-time WCL Coach of the Year honoree, Brooke is perhaps most proud that two of his teams earned the league’s Sportsmanship Award. To him, coaching is more than wins and losses. A successful coach is one who gets the most out of his players, instills valuable life lessons, and helps raise promising, productive adults. A cornerstone of his work – as a coach and as owner of a premier lending business in Oregon – is the cultivation of authentic, powerful relationships. Brooke was not blessed with superior athletic talent, size, or strength. What he lacked in natural ability he more than made up for in grit, perseverance, attitude, and coachability. He may inspire you with his story of an unrecruited walk-on to earn scholarships in two sports in college, and he will certainly leave a lasting impression that when you master the non-negotiables, success follows.
