5-Star in Pittsburgh

I’m sorry it’s been so long since you’ve heard from me, but this past week I’m currently at Robert Morris University in Moon Township, PA (right outside Pittsburgh) for 5-Star Basketball. I just finished up one camp here and tomorrow will start their Academic All-American Camp. The Academic All-American Camp is 5-Star’s regular camp, but they also help kids understand the NCAA Clearinghouse and what it takes to be eligible to play in college.

This past week, I helped run the Canteen. We sold 5-Star equipment as well as food and drinks. This may seem like a small and mindless task, but I got to talk with a lot of coaches and have been trusted with a lot of responsibilites. I found out this past week that Lawrence Frank, coach of the New Jerseyh Nets started in the canteen, so I know that its not just a job that leads no where. I know that I have to work my way up from the bottom.

One of the coaches I met was Jordan Watson. Coach Watson is a coach at Barton County Community College in the Jayhawk Conference. Coach Watson has had a good amount of interaction with our coaches during recruiting.

 Well, I will talk to you in a week or so. Be safe
