Landmark Christian School is excited to announce the hiring of Brandon Cerezola as the new head coach of the varsity boys basketball team. Coach Cerezola comes to Landmark Christian with an impressive background of success.
Landmark Christian School Director of Basketball, Lady Hardmon Grooms shared, “I can’t say enough about how talented and extraordinary Brandon Cerezola is. He is young with an old school approach to the game. He teaches the game the right way because the fundamentals matter to him. Coach Cerezola is a true student of the game and I know he will go above and beyond to make this program successful.”
After a year as a graduate assistant coach at his alma mater, Truett-McConnell University,
Cerezola became one of the youngest coaches at the collegiate level, at age 23, to head the program at Hiwassee College in Madison, Tennessee.

“I’m thankful God allowed my path to cross with Landmark Christian School and I look forward to seeing His plans unfold through our basketball program. I also want to thank Landmark’s leadership for entrusting me with this program. I believe this is what God has called me to do, giving back to the game I love and learned so much from. Our program will play hard and with passion, and we will enjoy playing this game together. I’m excited about helping take this program to the next level.”
