Coaches

Lance and Beth Waldron are proud to be joining the DWCS family, bringing energy and dedication to both the basketball program and their classrooms.

As head boys basketball coach, Lance brings 12 years of high school coaching experience and an impressive overall record of 286-125. He has previously coached at Simsboro High School for 9 seasons where he led the team to 6 district championships, 3 appearances in the Top 28 and 2 back to back state championship appearances in 2012 and 2013. The 2012 appearance was Simsboro’s first since 1975. He also earned 5 district Coach of the Year and 6 Parish Coach of the Year honors during that time.

Lance stepped away from the coaching world for 7 years and joined the corporate ranks. He returned to the sidelines in 2022 where he coached Cedar Creek School’s boys basketball team for 3 years and guided the team to its first quarterfinals appearance in 37 years.

Lance’s coaching philosophy focuses on the importance of practice and skill development, teamwork, competitiveness, and preparing players to perform at their best under pressure.

Beth Waldron, his wife of 27 years, serves on his coaching staff and is starting her 24th year in education teaching the K-7 STEM/Core Connections classes. Her teaching goals are to inspire students to learn through play, think critically, and connect learning to the real world.

Together, the Waldrons are committed to building a program that is competitive and respected in the high school basketball community as well as encouraging students to reach their full potential.
