College Hoops: Player-Turned-Coach Loves Game More Than Ever

By: Victoria Lux

Basketball has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I can’t remember when a basketball was not in my hands when I was a kid. Basketball has shaped me into the person I am today. I worked hard to receive a full scholarship to play collegiate basketball at Bentley University for Head Coach Barbara Stevens, who is a 2020 Hall of Fame Finalist, along with Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, and many other big names.

Currently, I’m in my first-year as the Assistant Coach of Regis College’s Women’s Basketball team. Regis competes at the Division 3 level and in the Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC). It’s important to make the most out of this opportunity because I’m an aspiring Division 1 Head Coach.

This video features my players demonstrating just how hard they work every day on the court. As their coach, my job is to help improve their skills and overall basketball IQ. Even though I’m in the coaching role now, I learn from them just as much as they learn from me. That’s the magic that comes from sports, being on a team, and being a part of a sports family.

The video above is a demonstration of hard work and dedication to the game of basketball. The Regis WBB team shows true motivation and determination, everyday, on and off the court. (VIDEO BY: Maria Krull)
