It’s almost that time of year again. Players, you have little time remaining to hone your craft this offseason before it’s time to prove how hard you’ve worked to improve yourself—both on and off the court.

“Players under pressure revert back to their deeply held habits”. In a big game, against tough defense you will see what type of player you are. You will see what your habits are.

This is the touching story of two members of our PGC family. Ieshia Small is a PGC grad who is one of the top high school players in the nation.
