Shane Heston is entering his second season as Valpo recruiting coordinator in Fall 2021.
Heston was on staff in Spring 2021 as Valpo posted its best winning percentage since 2003 and tied for the squad’s best winning percentage since 1999. The team garnered Pioneer Football League runner-up honors, the program’s highest finish in the league standings since the PFL championship season of 2003.
Heston joined Landon Fox’s staff for the 2020-2021 campaign after previously serving as the recruiting coordinator and wide receivers coach at Adrian College, a role he had held since July 2019. He helped two of the team’s wide receivers finish in the top five in receiving yards per game in the conference, including one who led the conference in yards per game, yards per reception and total receiving yards.
During his time at Adrian, Heston also served as the punt return coach, hands team coach, offensive practice film coordinator, study table director, recruiting coordinator, on-campus visit coordinator, camp coordinator and media/social media director.
Heston played cornerback at Olivet College from August 2012 to April 2013 before becoming a student operations manager for the Michigan State football program from March 2014 to January 2017. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in communication arts and sciences specializing in interpersonal communication in December 2016.
