After 25 years as Head Coach of the Massachusetts Thundercats, Coach Marvin Avery has decided to step down and move into an advisory role. The dedication of Coach Avery and former Director Mr. Ridley has not only helped countless young ladies flourish on the court, but watched and mentored young ladies as they’ve grown off the court. While Coach Avery and Mr. Ridley have helped many players reach their dreams of playing college basketball, they cherished the opportunity to teach the teams about life and what life could look like after basketball. We thank Coach Avery and Mr. Ridley for their 25 years of dedication to building up a program promoting women’s basketball and know they will continue to support the program moving forward.  The Massachusetts Thundercats look forward to continuing their legacy. Once a Thundercat, Always a Thundercat!
