It was a huge blow to my confidence. I knew something had to change.

With my season over, I was left with one question: “How do I contribute even while not being able to play?”

I was drawn to PGC because of the culture. The basketball stuff is amazing, but it’s the leadership and mentality training that’s truly impacted my life (and those around me).

I remember Dena Evans’ talk on mental toughness. I remember all this deep wisdom about controlling momentum in games.

I was a basketball player that at 17 years old, had dreamed of playing in college for 15 years. I attended showcase camps all summer, but saved one week in June to attend Dick DeVenzio’s, Point Guard College Basketball Camp.

I grew up watching my dad coach football, and saw the daily impact he made on the kid’s he coached. Attending PGC gave me even more inspiration. Seeing how lessons of life and basketball go hand in hand.

Let me explain...when I first heard about PGC, I was a sophomore in college. I attended Scoring College the summer before my junior year with PGC Director Tyler Coston.

But it was hard because I'm slow, unathletic, and have had multiple knee injuries. After going to PGC, I learned the importance of the mental side of the game. I learned how to be a true “student of the game.”
