Aeon Blake

Aeon Blake is in his third season as the Strength & Conditioning Coach as well as the Defensive Line Coach with the Battling Bishop football program.

Blake comes to the Bishops from D-3 College of Wooster (Oh.) where over his three seasons, he saw two of his starting linemen earn All-NCAC honors, with a defensive tackle earning a second straight first-team honor, a first by any player in the program since the 2010 and 2011 seasons.

No stranger to Div. III, Blake spent most recently coaching a two-year stint at Heidelberg University (OH), where another defensive tackle was a consensus All-America selection in 2017, as his team finished eighth nationally with 3.6 sacks per game. Prior to Heidelberg, Blake spent two seasons at North Carolina Wesleyan from 2015-2017 and a year at Div. II Chowan University in 2014, where he coached the defensive line at both stops.

As a student-athlete, Blake began his career at Mendocino College and transferred to Chowan, where he earned All-Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association second-team honors in 2013.

Blake graduated from Chowan with a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science in 2015 with a minor in coaching, and furthered his education with a Master's Degree in Education and Leadership during his time at Heidelberg in 2019.
