“David is a very talented player who has improved every year. This year, however, I saw him take his biggest leap forward as a leader. He put his team on his back and vaulted them to a heck of a record. I enjoyed watching him grow, but I’m happy he’s graduating.”

Bernard McCrumby

Head Coach at Junipero Serra (Gardena)
