Biography

In his 14th season at the school, this past season was the best in Eden Prairie boys’ basketball history with the program finishing No. 9 in both the MaxPreps’ and ESPN national rankings.

Flom led the school to a perfect 28-0 record, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, the team’s run to a possible state championship ended before the sectional finals were played.

Amazingly, this year’s team had four players who each scored over 1,000 career points. One of the highlights of the season was 78-64 win over Minnehaha Academy, the No. 1 team in Class 3A. Eden was No. 1 in 4A.

Flom, who twice has been named Minnesota’s Coach of the Year, owns a lifetime coaching record of 358-138. He’s also been named Minnesota Sectional Coach of the Year eight times.

Since being honored, Flom resigned after 17 season in March of 2023. In May of 2023, Flom was hired as the new coach at Southwest Christian High School.
