Nate Louis is entering his sixth season, third as an assistant, on staff with Charleston Southern. His tenure at CSU began back in 2018 when he was a member of the basketball team for two seasons. A successful shooting threat himself, Louis still ranks in the top five in career three-point field goal percentage (42.5%) in CSU men's basketball history. In 2020-21, Louis joined the staff as the Video Coordinator, which aided the program in many operations and scouting efforts.
Â
Louis played in 55 games in his two seasons at CSU, starting in 27 of them. He made 76 three-point field goals as a Buc highlighted by a 6-of-9 performance against Presbyterian his junior year.
Prior to his playing days as a Buccaneer, Louis played two seasons at South Georgia State College where he averaged 17.7 points and 6.1 assists per contest during his sophomore campaign. His 113 made three-point attempts and 196 assists both ranked in the Top-12 in all of junior college basketball during the 2017-18 season. Louis' high-level production on the floor was well-awarded as the future Buccaneer was selected as a NJCAA First-Team member as well as receiving multiple GCAA Player of the Week awards.
A proud Kissimmee, Florida native, Louis graduated from Poinciana High School where he was a part of the 2015-16 Class 5A State Championship team, the first boys' basketball state title in the school's history.
Not only was Louis a three-point specialist on the court, but perhaps his most impressive three points were achieved in the classroom as he is the owner of three college degrees: AA Degree in Pre-Allied Health from South Georgia State College (2018), Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from Charleston Southern University (2020), and a Masters in Education also from Charleston Southern University (2024).
