“The game of basketball has been everything to me. My place of refuge, place I've always gone where I needed comfort and peace. It's been the site of intense pain and the most intense feelings of joy and satisfaction. It's a relationship that has evolved over time, given me the greatest respect and love for the game.

~ Michael Jordan

Coach Tey ended his 2nd Season with the Rockford lutheran crusaders! he and the crusaders Jr. High Program also competed at the state tourney this past season! Coach tey’s main objective for teaching basketball is to promote self worth and confidence. His philosophy is that each student-athlete has talents that haven’t been unlocked yet! It takes motivation and trust for a potential breakthrough! Teaching fundamentals and finding individual skills is the goal when working in the lab! We all have what it takes to be the best we can be, it takes a supportive someone to bring out that special Hunger for the game!
