Entering his second year at EMU is Mike Groulx, who came to Ypsilanti after spending two and a half seasons as the head women’s basketball coach at St. Clair County Community College.
In his first season at EMU, he helped led the Eagles to a 24-13 record and tie the school record for the most wins in a season. The Eagles advanced to the Mid-American Conference Tournament Championship, winning four-of-five MAC Tournament games, before advancing to the Sweet 16 of the 2015 Postseason WNIT. The Eagles rewrote the EMU record book with 124 different all-time top performances, including the most points in a season (2,549), field goals made (936), rebounds (1,539) and three-pointers made (223).
In his interim season with St. Clair County Community College, Groulx took a 9-9 program and led it to the Region 12 District H Championship and a spot in the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) National Tournament. Groulx was named Region 12 District H Coach of the Year following his first season as head coach of the Skippers.
The Armada, Mich. native led the 2012-13 SC4 women’s basketball team to a school-record 32 wins, securing the Eastern Conference Championship as well as a Michigan Community College Athletic Association (MCCAA) State Championship. The Skippers went on to finish fourth in the NJCAA Division II Championships, while Groulx was named the 2013 Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan (BCAM) Junior College Women’s Coach of the Year as well as MCCAA State Coach of the Year and Region 12 District H Coach of the Year.
In the 2013-14 season, SC4 made its third-straight appearance in the NJCAA Division II National Tournament, finishing fourth, while Groulx garnered both MCCAA Coach of the Year and NJCAA District H Coach of the Year honors. The squad set a school record with a 26-game win streak, won its second straight conference title and garnered back-to-back state titles. Six members of the 2013-14 St. Clair County Community College women’s basketball team earned all-conference accolades, including Rachel Kehoe who was a MCCAA Honorable Mention All-Conference selection; two student-athletes grabbed all-region honors and two were named to the NJCAA Division II National Tournament All-Tournament team.
As head coach, Groulx sent nine student-athletes onto four-year universities. Additionally, he also coached 15 academic all-league players and one Academic All-American during his tenure with the Skippers.
Prior to being named the head coach of the women’s basketball program, Groulx spent six seasons as an assistant coach with the SC4 men’s basketball program. The 2009-10 Skippers won the regional championship and placed eighth at the NJCAA National Tournament.
Groulx graduated from St. Clair County Community College in 2005 with an associate of general studies and an associate of arts before going on to earn his Bachelor’s degree in multi-disciplinary studies from Siena Heights University in 2011.
Groulx and his wife, Ashley, have two daughters, Adrien (8) and Addison (3).
