Coaching philosophy:

I believe that high school volleyball can have a significant positive impact on the work ethic, leadership, teamwork, competitive spirit, and sport-specific skills of each student athlete. My high school volleyball experience was one where I grew in many ways, and my desire is for the same to be true for my players. This program will focus on what it means to be a part of team and maintain good sportsmanship, while competing at a high level. I believe that a sports program can only be successful if the athletes are strong in the fundamentals of the sport and are taught to anticipate and make adjustments on their own. I will work hard to provide my athletes with the best training and support I can to help them reach both their individual and team potential. My goal is that the boys who pass through this program will compete at a high level and, above all, become life-long lovers of volleyball and who use that love to make a difference in their community.
