GREENWOOD, IN (April 20, 2026) – Trent Moorhead is the next head varsity boys basketball coach for Center Grove High School (CGHS). Moorhead will assume the role at the start of the 2026-27 school year, succeeding Zach Hahn, who announced plans to step down at the end of this season.
Moorhead’s hiring is pending approval by the Center Grove Board of School Trustees at its May meeting. Moorhead brings four years of head coaching experience at Hauser High School in Hope, Indiana, where he built the program into one of the state’s elite Class A programs. In his time leading the Jets, he compiled an overall record of 79-27, including a 26-3 mark this past season, the program’s best since its 2006 state championship run. Under his leadership, Hauser earned back-to-back semistate appearances, three consecutive undefeated Mid-Hoosier Conference titles, and two regional championships. He was also named the 2025 and 2026 Hoosier Basketball Coaches Association
District 3 Coach of the Year, along with being named a South Team coach for the IndyStar Boys’ All-Star “Futures Game” this coming June. Moorhead holds a bachelor’s degree in Secondary Mathematics Education from Indiana University.
Moorhead comes from one of Indiana’s most storied coaching families. He is the grandson of Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame coach Gus Moorhead and the son of former South Dearborn head coach Rob Moorhead, making him a third-generation basketball coach in the state. Moorhead’s brother, Brad, is set to begin his second year as the Head Coach at South Dearborn High School. Moorhead and his wife, Bre, have a seven-month-old daughter, Juliette.
“Trent has proven he knows how to build a program, not just win games, but develop young men and create a culture of excellence,” said Joe Bronkella, Center Grove High School Athletic Director. “What truly sets him apart is his energy, his passion for the game, and his deep knowledge of basketball. His enthusiasm is contagious, and we are confident he is the right leader to guide Trojan basketball into its next chapter.”
Moorhead will inherit a program with a strong tradition and high expectations.
“I am incredibly excited and honored to lead the boys’ basketball program at Center Grove High School,” said Moorhead. “Center Grove is a first-class district and one of the most respected schools in the state of Indiana. Their high standards for both academics and athletics make them an exceptional community for developing well-rounded, high-performing student-athletes. I want to thank Mr. Joe Bronkella and the rest of the Center Grove administration for placing their trust in me to develop and lead a competitive program with a positive culture that will drive our players to be the best versions of themselves on and off the court. My wife, Bre, and I, along with our daughter, Juliette, cannot wait to become a part of the Trojan community.”
