What Excel Meant to Me: “Excel was, and still is my favorite summer activity. I loved the Station Drills, Ballhandling and Dribbling and of course the competition in games and one on one. I went to 5 Star one summer and couldn’t wait to get home to go back to Excel. The lessons I learned at camp made me a great player and have challenged me to be a better coach.”
