About Frank Schade

Born 1950. Frank Schade is an American basketball coach and basketball player.

Frank Schade (born January 22, 1950) is an American former professional basketball player and coach.

As a high school junior, Schade played on the Wausau High School Lumberjacks team which finished as runners-up in the 1967 WIAA Boys Basketball Championship.

While recruited to play for coach Don Haskins at Texas Western (now the University of Texas at El Paso), he elected to stay in Wisconsin to attend the University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire where he scored 1599 points from 1969 to 1972. In his final year at Eau Claire, the Blugolds finished as NAIA national runners-up to Kentucky State University.
