“… I am honored and blessed to have my name mentioned alongside the really good coaches on that list. I truly feel like this team would make any coach look good. It is not about me at all, our kids and assistant coaches deserve all the credit in the world. I have been blessed with a great group and I am thankful to be their coach.”
“… When you mention winning it 3 times in 5 years, I’d simply credit that to the kids that I have been fortunate enough to coach throughout that timeframe and our staff that has been together that whole time. I’m proud of where our program is right now and it is my hope that we can continue to build on that moving forward!”
