For the last 4 years I’ve had the opportunity to be part of a successful winning program at CCP. In 2014-15 season we were ranked for the first time in school history reaching as high as No#2 in the nation. We were back to back regular season and conference champions reaching the Elite 8 NJCAA nationals in back to back years 2014-2015 seasons. During my tenure at CCP I was in charge of skill development for our guards. I had the opportunity to coach several All conference players including 2015-16 Region XIX POY Jeffery Sterling.
From being a coach and player I possess a firm foundation in the understanding of basic basketball principles. I also understand how to motivate athletes for the common good. The combination of these skills will allow me to foster a positive atmosphere with which we can build a strong foundation. Throughout my time playing and coaching at the high school and college level has allowed me to study a variety of coaching strategies. I possess a wealth of knowledge and I am willing to remain flexible enough that my player’s individual talents can flourish within the structure of a team’s system.
