Bio

A 1988 Morningside graduate, Mohl, who still ranks among the top 15 for the Mustangs in career scoring, has transitioned into a successful coaching career. He’s beginning his 11th season as coach of the North Iowa Area Community College men's basketball program in Mason City. 

His record stands at 185-150 which includes a 25-5 mark in 2018-19. The Trojans have been amongst the highest scoring teams in the league in his tenure.

“We’re on an upswing (at NIACC),” Mohl said. “Last year, we set a school record for wins, and we return a lot of those same players. We’re on a run of six winning seasons in the last seven years which has happened for a while in program history. I’ve been fortunate (to be at NIACC) and not only lead good players but also good young men.

Morningside always felt like home,” he added. “I was exposed to great coaches and teammates while also being able to work with different personalities which has helped in my coaching career. Overall, there was such a sense of community and togetherness (at Morningside).”
