Words of Wisdom

We would like to take some time and give a big thanks to all of the coaches who have put their time and energy into our program this season.  Their dedication and hard work truly impacts and inspires SCORES students, and none of this would be possible without them.  At the beginning of the year, we ask each coach to fill out some short interview questions about themselves, and we would like to highlight each coach by sharing with you their words of wisdom. (Some coaches may not be listed)
