What got you into coaching?: "Getting into coaching came around my junior year in high school when my varsity coach let players help work basketball camps in the summer.  I had always played and practiced with my brothers in our shed growing up, but a JV coach really pushed me to be and play my best, which coincided with our philosophies at home.  From there, it just seemed natural that this is what I wanted to do."
