Coaches

Alex Perno

Alex Perno was named the Head Coach of the Bishop’s Gaiters Women’s Basketball team on April 23, 2008.

Perno is an accomplished coach at the collegiate and secondary levels, with several championships to his credit. Perno coached the AAA Men’s Basketball team at Cégep Montmorency for three seasons, posting a 30-14 regular season record. In his first season with the team, 2005-2006, he led the Nomades to the CCAA national championship, the first for a Quebec school in ten years. This year, he led the Nomades to their second provincial title in three years, and a fifth-place finish at the 2008 CCAA National Championship.

Prior to Montmorency, Perno, a native of Deux-Montagnes, Que., excelled as a women’s basketball coach at the high school level. He led Collège Laval to the 2005 Juvenile AAA provincial championship, and from 2000-2004, he won three provincial championships and a silver medal with the Collège Regina Assumpta Juvenile AAA team.

Perno resides in Lennoxville.
