I’m very proud of the Crest Ridge girls’ basketball program’s great history and the tradition of being positive examples in the community. I grew up watching CR girls’ basketball from the stands, loved my time playing in high school, and now enter my 14th year as a CR coach. I love the game of basketball and was blessed with the opportunity to play at Northwest Missouri State University. My goal is to teach young ladies to pursue excellence; this effort requires passion, humility, grit, confidence, drive, and an uncommon desire to be one’s best and bring out the best in others.
Basketball is a team sport that requires daily improvement of skills, conditioning, and teamwork. Our program standards focus on what we can control: have a positive attitude; give your best effort; be a good communicator; and be a great teammate. We are a team that strives together; for greatness is not in the outcome, it's in the process, in who you become & the greatness you bring out in others.
