Mike C. Brown ’00

Mike Brown joined the SCH parent community in 2023, quickly embracing volunteer opportunities. Drawing on his passion for athletics, he became a dedicated coach for the Blue Devils' baseball and basketball teams.

Brown’s own athletic career at CHA was exceptional, earning him 12 varsity letters in basketball and baseball. In his senior year, he received the Patterson Cup as the school's most outstanding athlete. He was a key member of the 1997-1998 Inter-Ac championship basketball team and captained the squad in his final year. On the baseball field, Brown was recognized as an Inter-Ac All-Star and Philadelphia Regional All-Star for all four years of high school, and a Philadelphia All-City All-Star three times.

For nearly a decade, Brown has been coaching baseball, and he helped the varsity team secure the 2016 Inter- Ac championship. He also serves as an assistant varsity basketball coach at SCH and recently took on the role of Middle School JV head coach. Adding to his commitments, he was recently named Upper School acting head varsity baseball coach—a remarkable undertaking, especially as Brown continues to coach while managing an ALS diagnosis.

Brown’s dedication has not just deeply affected his student-athletes but also his former classmates. Stu Miller '98 shared, "When Mike got diagnosed with ALS, he doubled down on his commitment to family and the SCH sports community through coaching both basketball and baseball. His strength and unselfish nature are unmatched."
