No stranger to the state of North Carolina and NC State, Summey, a Hickory, N.C. native, is in his second season as an assistant coach at his alma mater.

A 1997 NC State graduate, Summey served as a student manager as a senior and also spent two seasons as a graduate manager with the Pack from 1997-99.

He was most recently with Bowling Green where he served as assistant coach from 2015-20. At BGSU, Summey worked day-to-day in the development of the players. He also played a big role in opponent scouting and off-campus recruiting, among other duties. He helped develop several All-Conference players in his time at Bowling Green as Falcon players received All-MAC recognition 11 times in his five seasons with the program, including having a first-team and second-team selection each of the last two seasons. In 2018-19, Summey helped Bowling Green achieve its first MAC Tournament championship game appearance in 17 years as the Falcons finished with a 22-12 record. In the most recent season, Bowling Green finished with a 21-10 record and was a No. 2 seed in the MAC Tournament when the season was cancelled because of COVID-19. In his last two years at Bowling Green, Summey helped the Falcons win 21-plus games in back-to-back seasons for the first time since the 1947-49 season.

Summey has an extensive coaching background, he came to Bowling Green after two seasons as the Associate Head Coach at St. Francis (Pa.). He also got his first full-time assistant job in college basketball with the Red Flash from 2000-03. Before Saint Francis (Pa.), Summey served as Director of Basketball Operations with the Miami Hurricanes for four years from 2009-13, where he oversaw the day-to-day administrative operations of the program. He served as the head coach at Bethany College (W. Va.) during the 2008-09 season and two years as the assistant head coach at North Florida from 2006-08, aiding in the Ospreys' transition to NCAA Division I and the Atlantic Sun Conference.

As the head coach for Division III Bethany in 2008-09, the Bison went 17-12 and finished second in the Presidents' Athletic Conference with a 9-3 mark en route to a PAC championship game berth and an ECAC South Region Tournament invitation. Despite losing four starters, Summey posted the best record in Bethany history for a first-year head coach.

Prior to joining the UNF staff, Summey served for two years as an assistant coach at The Citadel from 2004-06. Summey's career has also included a stop at Queens University in Charlotte, N.C. as the top assistant in 2003-04.
