Nate Frank was an All-American center in 1994 for the Wheaton men’s basketball team, as well as an Academic All-American in 1995. As a senior during the 1994-95 season, he helped lead Wheaton to its first postseason berth since the 1959-60 season. Frank’s name is prominent in the school records – he ranks high on Wheaton’s career rebounds (928), career free throws (368), assists (258) and the career scoring list with 1,446 points.
“I have many great memories of my time playing at Wheaton, but the best memory is the NCAA tournament game we played in at home versus Hanover in 1995,” Frank said. “I arrived on campus the same year Coach Harris did in 1991, and from day one, he preached to us that if we bought into what he was doing and to being a team, we would get Wheaton basketball back to the point of being a nationally prominent Division III program. Although there were times we doubted if this were possible, we stuck with him. Making the tournament and playing in front of a big crowd at Centennial Gym was not only a thrilling experience but it marked the culmination of four years of hard work and I think, in a way, helped build the foundation for much greater future success.”
Frank has also spent significant time as an assistant coach for the Wheaton College men’s basketball team.
