Akil White
Military Kid who married a girl from the Yakima Valley. Thought I would be here a few years but now 22
years later I found out what most who live here know we have our own little paradise in the Yakima
Valley. By day I work in business. I am married to a career educator with two awesome daughters. One
of my daughter’s is a junior at Stanford the other a junior in high school in her mom’s building over at La
Salle. I have been coaching In the Yakima Valley for 20 years. I started out coaching JV boys but as a
father of two girls moved to the girl’s side and never looked back or regretted it one day. Most of my
career accomplishments are listed below however being the Davis Pirates Basketball Coach is truly a
highlight to my career. It’s the job I always wanted.
