Schmidt joins UMass Lowell ahead of the 2026-27 season after spending the last season at St. Bonaventure as an assistant coach.
While at St. Bonaventure, Schmidt assisted the head coach in all aspects with an emphasis on development, recruiting, practice preparation, and game scouting. In his one season there, the Bonnies pulled off a pair of upsets in the A-10 Championship to make a run to the quarterfinals.
Prior to his time at St. Bonaventure, Schmidt spent a season at Bryant University, where he continued to put emphasis on development, recruiting, practice preparation, and scouting. While with the Bulldogs, he played a major role in helping the team earn its first America East Regular Season Championship and America East Championship, earning a bid to the 2025 NCAA Tournament. A member of the 2025 America East Coaching Staff of the Year, Schmidt helped develop both the America East Player of the Year and the America East Newcomer of the Year.
Beyond his time at Bryant, Schmidt had a handful of other stops in his coaching career, most notably serving as a National Prep Team Assistant Basketball Coach at Putnam Science Academy from 2021 to 2024, while also taking on the role of the Head Men's Varsity Basketball Coach there. He also spent a year as an assistant coach for the NY Jayhawks in 2023, Catholic University during the 2020-21 season, and two years as a Graduate Assistant Coach at St. Bonaventure during the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons.
