WESTLAKE BASKETBALL HEAD COACH

Head Coach Curtis Allen enters his second season at the helm of the Westlake High School boys basketball program. In his first year leading the Warriors, Allen guided the team to a 19–11 record, a second-place finish in the Marmonte League, and a berth in the CIF Southern Section Division I playoffs, where Westlake battled Inglewood in the opening round.

Coach Allen brings a wealth of experience from an accomplished collegiate coaching career and standout playing days.

Allen was a standout guard at the University of Washington under Lorenzo Romar, where he set the school record for free throw accuracy at 86.7% and ranks second all-time in three-pointers made. He appeared in 117 career games, including 51 starts, and helped lead the Huskies to the 2004 NCAA Tournament.

His coaching journey began as an assistant at University Prep in Seattle before joining Portland State University, where he helped the program capture back-to-back Big Sky Conference Tournament championships and earn NCAA Tournament appearances in 2008 and 2009.

Allen then spent nine seasons at Washington State University, where he was part of a staff that produced a 22-win campaign in 2010–11, advancing to both the NIT semifinals and CBI championship round. During his tenure, he also coached future NBA All-Star Klay Thompson.

Most recently, Allen spent six seasons as an assistant coach at Pepperdine University, where he played a key role in one of the nation’s most notable program turnarounds. In 2018–19, he helped the Waves improve their win total by 10 games, and in 2021, Pepperdine captured the College Basketball Invitational championship.

“I couldn’t be more excited to continue building on the foundation we’ve started here at Westlake,” said Allen. “This program has tremendous potential, and I’m proud of the direction we’re heading.”

A native of Tacoma, Washington, Allen graduated from the University of Washington in 2005 with a degree in general studies. He now resides in the Conejo Valley with his wife, Alissa, and their three sons — Trey, Noah, and Jalen. In his free time, Coach Allen enjoys golf and spending quality time with his family.

Westlake High School is proud to have Coach Allen leading the boys basketball program and looks forward to continued growth and success under his leadership.
