Nick Carty joined the Lincoln men's basketball team as a graduate assistant in the summer of 2022. He is in his second season with the Blue Tigers.
During the 2022-23 season, Carty helped coach the second-biggest turnaround in NCAA Division II, as Lincoln won 17 games and finished fifth in the MIAA after tallying just four wins in 2021-22. Carty worked with three players who earned All-MIAA accolades.
Carty comes to Lincoln from Colorado State University, an NCAA Division I program, where he served as the head student manager and assistant video coordinator. Carty helped the Rams go 25-6 in 2021-22 and qualify for the NCAA tournament. From 2018-20, Carty played at Grinnell College, taking the team to the Midwest Conference Championship tournament finals as a freshman and to the semifinals as a sophomore.
