In his first season at UMC, Beamish's primary responsibilities were recruiting throughout the Midwest, scouting game film of opponents, helping coach the big men for the Golden Eagles, while also helping oversee UMC's video efforts. He helped the Golden Eagles to a 7-20 mark, their most wins since the 2000-01 season.

Prior to arriving at UMC, Beamish spent one season as a graduate assistant for the men's basketball program at the University of Miami (Fla) under Jim Larranaga.

As a graduate assistant for the Hurricanes, Beamish's primary responsibilities were breaking down opponent's game film, assisting during practice and helping run Miami's basketball camps. During Beamish's one season with the Hurricanes he helped lead the team to a 17-15 mark.

Before making the trip South to Miami, Beamish was an assistant coach for two seasons at Saint Leo University in Saint Leo, Fla. as a member of Head Coach Lance Randall's staff. Before making the move to Florida, Beamish was an assistant coach for one season at his alma mater, University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, where he helped the Pointers to a successful 26-4 record and a Sweet 16 appearance at the NCAA Division III NationalTournament.

As a player, the Wisconsin Rapids, Wis., native had a prolific four-year career for the Pointers. During his time in Stevens Point, he earned First Team All-Conference honors twice and served as team captain during his junior and senior seasons. Beamish started every game during three of his four years with the Pointers. He helped lead the team to two Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) Regular-Season and Tournament Championships and three NCAA Tournament appearances.

Beamish earned his Bachelor's Degree in Interpersonal and Organizational Communication from Wisconsin-Stevens Point. He earned a Master's in Business Administration (M.B.A.) with an emphasis in sports business from Saint Leo University in 2014. Beamish resides in Crookston.
