Every young assistant at one point in their career should drive a "school van". Builds character!!! When I see the STAC van, I know the @STACBasketball boys are working!

To close out our series, we hear from two of the most respected minds in basketball history: 2x National Champion Jay Wright and Boston Celtics President Brad Stevens. The foundation is set. The vision is clear. Let’s get to work.  #Spartans | #ByAnyMeans

Success leaves clues. Coach Alesi’s foundation was built under the guidance of the game’s best. His roots run deep, and he doesn’t plan on forgetting them. #Spartans | #ByAnyMeans

What a crew! The best professional development decision I ever made gave me life long memories and friendships. #D3Hoops
Not a bad Final Four crew. The last four Division III National Committee Chairs all in one place- proud of the work we did and the friendships that were formed.

Long overdue for Chris, who has been one of the longtime good guys and winners around here. I might have to fill an open date in Flushing next season now.

Best wishes to Pat McFadden, long time H/C at Albertus Magnus High School (NY) on his coaching retirement. Magnetic teacher, Pat's teams amassed 328 wins and numerous league titles. I had the privilege to coach Pat, in the late 1970's at St. Thomas Aquinas College. He is a gem!
