A Teacher is one who makes himself progressively unnecessary.

   Thomas Carruthers

Over the years as a Coach, as an Instructor, and I would like to think as a Teacher, I have been fortunate to work with some very talented young men and women.

With each player I always felt they changed my life as much, or maybe more than I had hoped to change theirs. With each athlete I truly believe in Thomas Carruthers' quote with a focus to help them learn to be their own coach.

I am frequently asked, and therefore, I am honored to provide a list of players who have help change my life.
