In 2010, the Generals continued their strong play with a 17-10 record and a trip to the ODAC semifinal. The 17 wins marked the most wins by a W&L team since the 1988-89 season.
Hutchinson was named the 2008 Old Dominion Athletic Conference Coach of the Year after guiding W&L to a 15-11 overall record, at the time its best mark in nearly two decades. The Generals also went 11-7 in conference play and earned the fifth seed for the ODAC Tournament. Hutchinson also helped mentor Greg Bienemann '08 to First Team All-ODAC honors for the second-straight season.
W&L's 2007-08 campaign followed an 11-14 record in 2006-07. The 11 wins were a seven-game improvement from the season before and helped to elevate the Generals' program into a winner.
Hutchinson came to Washington and Lee after spending two seasons as the head coach at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. In those two seasons, he led the Spartans to a 14-35 overall record while rebuilding the program. His initial recruiting class included eight players, most notably Carson Oren, the 2003 University Athletic Association Rookie of the Year.
Prior to CWRU, Hutchinson was the head coach at Stevens Institute of Technology from 1999-01, compiling a 19-31 overall mark. His second season resulted in a 12-13 overall record, a five-game improvement over his first campaign.
Hutchinson began his collegiate coaching career in 1994 as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Amherst College. In his two seasons with the Lord Jeffs, he was responsible for recruiting the school's second all-time leading scorer in All-American Jamal Wilson and helping lead the team to the NCAA Division III Elite Eight.
In 1996, Hutchinson assumed the role of player and coach with the Cardiff Clippers of the English National Basketball League before spending the 1997-98 and 1998-99 seasons as an assistant coach at Emory University.
