Northern Lehigh announced Monday that Patrick Wanamaker would be taking over as head coach of the boys basketball team.

Wanamaker takes over for Jeff Miller, who resigned in June.

Wanamaker has been an assistant coach for 13 years, spending eight of those with Northwestern and five with the Bulldogs.

He brings championship experience to the program, having served on the Northern Lehigh staff for the 2008 Colonial League and District 11 title runs. He was also a member of the Bulldogs’ staff that won the 2010 league championship.

At Northwestern, he was a part of a run that included three trips to the District 11 playoffs and a berth in the state tournament in 2019.

As a player, Wanamaker was a member of the Northern Lehigh program from 2004-07. He was a part of the 2007 Colonial League championship squad, and a First Team all-league selection the same year.

Miller had a 105-125 career record as the Bulldogs head coach. His teams qualified for the District 11 playoffs in six of his 10 years, advancing to the PIAA State playoffs in 2012.

He was with the program for the last 12 years, spending the last 10 as head coach.
