“He’s a nightmare to defend, because once he has the ball, he’s either going to get one of his teammates a great shot or score on his own a high percentage of the time. No player has done more to help his team win and compete than Quentin Meza.”

Bernie Graziano

Head Coach head coach at Taylorsville High
