Sage Men's Basketball Coaching Philosophy

Our philosophy as a Men’s Basketball staff at Sage is to recruit student athletes who want to be successful in the overall college experience; excelling on the court, in the classroom, and as members of the campus community.

Our goal is to enable members of our program to grow into young men of high character, conscientious students, and talented collegiate basketball players. We aim to instill confidence, discipline, and commitment to achieve team academic and athletic success.

With regards to style of play, we would like to implement an up-tempo style, maximizing scoring opportunities while minimizing mistakes. We believe in putting an emphasis on a relentless pressure of offensive attack while staying true to solid defensive principles.

We want our players to compete with extreme confidence on both ends of the floor and to be physically and mentally tougher than our opponents. We will take great pride in being physically conditioned and mentally prepared to compete at a high level every time we step on the floor.
