Coaching philosophy: I believe one of the most important things I can do as a coach is build relationships with our players. This way I get to know their strengths and weaknesses and hopefully learn what motivates them best in order to get the most effort on and off the field as a Christian man. Helping them deal with, and learn from tough situations now will help them succeed when they face adversity in the future. I also believe that creating a positive atmosphere for the players and encouraging them even when things are tough is key to building those strong relationships and motivating the players to do their best no matter what. Lastly, as a Christian coach it is also important for me to lead by example and emulate my Christian walk in practice, during games, and with both fans and opponents.
