Girl’s Basketball

Bennie Robinson II
Head Coach

Greetings! I hail from the illustrious Simsboro High School, where I conquered 4 years of basketball and track, earning a spot on the first team in Lincoln Parish as a sophomore. After a stellar senior season, reaching the top 28 with a record of 45-5, I pursued higher education at Grambling State University. My journey led me to coach the Nike Select AAU basketball team before obtaining my Social Science bachelor’s degree at Northwestern State.

My career at Darbonne Woods began in 2015 as a teacher’s assistant, evolving into a role coaching track and football. Rekindling my passion for basketball, I immersed myself in coaching under Antarian Griffin. Progressing to lead the physical education program marked my ascent, and seizing the opportunity to guide the girls’ team fills me with excitement. Despite the challenges, I’m confident that our program will thrive with unwavering dedication.

Beyond the court, I share my life with Jamila Robinson, a certified special education teacher, and our three beautiful daughters—Ryann, Taytum, and Peyton Robinson. Our current abode is in Ruston, LA.
