Now in his 20th year at Grinnell College, Head Coach David Arseneault has become nationally and internationally renowned for his innovative coaching techniques and offensive-minded basketball.

Known for full-court pressing and three-point shooting, his teams have led all playing levels in scoring for 13 of the past 15 seasons, while ranking first in the country in three-point shooting for the 11 of the past 15 years.

In 2003-04, his Pioneers led the country in scoring with a then-NCAA record of 126.2 points per game. During the 2001-02 campaign, the team averaged previous NCAA record marks of 124.9 ppg and 20.4 three-pointers per contest.

A by-product of his high-flying, fast-paced basketball has been increased player participation, enthusiastic home crowds and a virtual assault on the offensive records section compiled by the NCAA Statistics Office.

While on sabbatical in 1996, Arseneault fulfilled numerous coaches' requests by publishing a book entitled, "The Running Game - A Formula for Success" and an instructional video called "Running To Extremes." In 2004, he produced another video, "Running to Win" that describes the evolution of the program's playing style. These instructional tools explain his unique playing and substitution style, which emphasize shooting the ball every 12 seconds and incorporating as many as 16 players per outing.

Arseneault received his Bachelor of Arts in Administrative Science from Colby College (1976) and Master of Education from Brock University (1985). He has been honored as the Midwest Conference Coach of the Year three times (1993-94, 1995-96, 2000-01) and has led the Pioneers to eight post-season appearances and four Midwest Conference Championships (1995-96, 2000-01, 2002-03 and 2006-07).

In addition to heading up Grinnell's prestigious men's basketball program, Arseneault has also led the College's women's golf team since 2000.

Arseneault resides in Grinnell along with his wife, Ellie, a third-grade teacher at Davis Elementary School. They have two children - David who is in his fourth year at Grinnell College - and Jennie who is at the University of Virginia.

Scott Hartman is in his first season as an assistant coach in the Pioneer men's basketball program.

Prior to joining the Grinnell staff, Hartman was an assistant coach for the Blue Valley West High School girl basketball team in Overland Park, Kan. He has also been an executive in the financial services industry for the past 25 years. Hartman will assist Coach Arseneault in recruiting and implementing personnel strategies for games.

Hartman is a central Iowa native, graduating from Ankeny High School and Iowa State University with a degree in Industrial Engineering. In addition, he has an MBA from the University of Kansas. He is married with a son in the Navy and a daughter attending Brown University.

Boulton begins his second year as an assistant coach for the Pioneers. Boulton is a 1994 graduate of Simpson College where he was a two-year letter winner in basketball for the Storm. He was a member of the 1991-92 squad that qualified for the NCAA Division III Tournament and captained the 1993-94 team.

Boulton began his coaching career as an assistant at Montezuma High School in 1994-95 and then coached at Lynnville-Sully High School during the 1995-96 season, helping the Hawks finish third at the Class 1A State Tournament. He became head coach at Seymour High School in 1996 and held that post until 1998 when he went to Keota, where he coached until 2002 while also serving on the Iowa Basketball Coaches Association Board of Directors.

Boulton works for Grinnell College as the assistant director of the Pioneer Fund and resides in Montezuma with his wife, Marie, and their two daughters, Elise and Mia, and a son, Brady.
