Favorite Basketball Memory:
I went the length of the court with eight seconds left on the clock, missed a running lay up, grabbed my rebound while falling to the ground and made the shot as time expired to bring the game to overtime. We went on to win the game and take second in the tournament.

Greatest Athlete of All time: N/A

Coaching Philosophy/Personal Thoughts:
The offense may get the glory but everyone knows defense wins championships. The score will determine its self, but at the end of the game, if you can look yourself in the mirror and say you left everything out on the court, no one can take that sense of pride away from you. Life is more about the game of basketball but basketball teaches us to keep pushing and fighting through the ups and downs of life.

What you will be doing in 20 years from now:
In 20 years from now i see myself helping kids become the best they can be. Whether that is through coaching, or teaching, I want to try and make an impact on someone's life. If i can make an impact on just one life, I know i can die a happy man.
