    Was lucky to be coached by Coach Goltz in his first few years at Sacred Heart.. You don’t appreciate all the lessons he does teach you until your older in life! He is definitely one of great ones!

Q: Let's, for folks that don't know about you, don't know about your basketball journey, tell us about yourself. Tell us how you ended up as the girls basketball coach at Sioux Falls Washington.
I've had everything I've done has been in South Dakota. My kind of my first thing was in high school. The basketball coach asked me if I would be willing to coach a young travel team. And it was just a group of kids who wanted to play.
A Pen And A Napkin-Episode #310 Mike Neighbors Volume II
Q: From what you've seen, and obviously it is a short sample or a small sample size of since you've really started tracking it here the last few weeks, any trends that you have seen or anything in the sense of, if I'm a coach, as you're getting ready for the next season here in a few months, how do you think this can help your, help the Sparks win games coming into next year?

A Pen And A Napkin-Episode #308 Ryan Hintz
