Proud of how far we’ve come! 📈
3rd place it is! ✅ A very solid 3-1 weekend playing against the best the Midwest has to offer! We’ve stayed the course & kept working- a short pause now before getting back to work in July for our final event! #StarsFam

Plenty of wins & losses over the years but development & improvement a constant- 2029 squad made a jump this weekend, look forward to keep working. *After 4 straight tourneys for most MN teams, it’s also time for a well-earned weekend off for players, families, refs & coaches.

Reflecting on another State Tourney, proud of the 2029 squad for their efforts. We’re working hard on defense & finishing plays- & despite falling short in the quarters (buzzer-beater) & in OT by 2 in 5th place game, we’re improving. Plenty of 🏀 ahead, back at it this weekend.

Prelims down, on to State! A lot of talent in the 2029 class- no shortage of 3pt attempts either. Up & down weekend for the squad, lacked consistency but helpful to get a good look at the age level. Don’t expect much to be easy- will work hard to improve & be ready for State.

Always a challenging & even occasionally fun couple of weeks competing against the top players & coaches in MN at the State Championship Series. Most teams find out where they’re at this weekend, then we see who can make adjustments (if needed) heading into next. Good luck! 🏀

New season with a new squad! Should be fun getting to know & compete at this 2029 age level that appears to be full of talent & depth. Good luck to all this season- see you in the gym!

🏀 Conference Play! -Matchups vary game to game- don’t expect easy. -Stop dwelling on officiating & most teams have an injury- just compete! -Players: Not happy with role or performance- get in the gym! -Coaches: Something not working- make a change! 💡 Embrace the process!

It was an honor to present alongside some of the top coaches in MN & beyond this past Friday at the @MNGBCA Fall Clinic! Goal was to showcase drills & teaching points that are transferable to all levels. Good luck to all with the start of the season! #GrowTheGame 🏀

Love getting the opportunity to coach players who are a lot smarter than me…this one certainly qualifies! Excited for your future, Sam! 🏀📚
I’m so excited to announce my commitment to the admissions process at Harvard University! Thank you to my family, friends, teammates, coaches and the Harvard coaching staff who have helped me get to this point!

Can’t think of a better place to wrap up the season with the 2025 squad than Rock Hill- a truly incredible venue filled with some of the best players, coaches, competition & exposure in the country. Thank you Morgan, Mike, Mark, players & families. The road ends at the rock. 🏀

Time flies! That’s a wrap on AAU events in MN for the 2025 squad. Another Final Four, 3rd place finish for a group who has overcome a lot to stay at the top. I’ve enjoyed competing at the age level these past 2 seasons- great players, coaches & teams. Now it’s on to July! 🏀✈️

That’s a wrap on a 3 week stretch that most MN players, coaches & families are feeling a bit exhausted from right about now. Proud of the 2025 squad’s consistency going 3-1 in each event for a solid 9-3 record against top competition. Plenty of work ahead but first a nap. 🥱

Reflecting on another State Tourney Series, very proud of the 2025 squad for their efforts & consistency. We pride ourselves on defense & unselfish play & despite falling short in the semis, fought back strong for 3rd. Plenty of season ahead, next up 3SSB in OK this weekend. ✈️
