"Kelley Newton is Fearless.  From the time he walked into the gym at Neosho County, then rising above a season-ending knee injury at Oklahoma, to coaching at Kansas City Community College.  Kelley does not lack confidence, was never afraid to take the big shot, and is ready to flash that big "swagger" smile in the face of anything that challenges his dreams."

Head Coach  

Cleveland Central Catholic High School

Jeremy’s son will be playing basketball for fellow NCCC teammate Coach Kelley Newton at Kansas City Community College in the fall of 2014.

"From the moment Jeremy walked into the NCCC gym on his recruiting visit, his presence took ownership of the gym.  Jeremy MADE All-Americans.  He dissected defenses making other players look like scoring machines.  Jeremy has basketball in his blood and was always two steps ahead of his competition which will separate him from his coaching opponents."

"Buster was everything you could want in a player.  He came to practice early, stayed late, and was our most skilled big man.  I call him our low-budget Tim Duncan.  Buster's dedication to the game, academics, and teammates carries over now to his personal life and family."
