“This is a rite of passage position,” Reggie says, “for many coaches just starting their college or NBA coaching careers.”

He earned a master’s degree is in Organizational Development Leadership with a focus on Adult Learning at SJU in 2021.

“My Hudson Catholic High School experience trained me well for the rigors of college and beyond. I not only had to do well in my studies but spend a significant amount of time most weeks each year training, conditioning, practicing and playing my sport. I learned how much work I would have to put in to be successful. Thank you so much to Tri-County and all the donors. I don’t know if I would be here now if you didn’t help me when I was starting high school. My education opened doors for me that wouldn’t have opened if I had attended another school. I am eternally grateful to everyone at Tri-County for helping me get to the position I am in today.”
