Ted’s coaching style and skills are attributable to his combined experiences. As a player, he experienced ten straight years of being on a championship team. Throughout High School and his College career, he has learned the steps to success. As member of the 1990 Maryland 4A State Championship Team at Annapolis High School, Ted received both USA Today Honorable Mention All American and McDonald’s Honorable Mention All American and was invited to Nike ABCD All American Basketball Camp for the top 300 recruits in the country.

While at UMass, he received numerous awards but is most proud of being named the “Most Improved Player”. After his college career, he went on to play in Austria and then returned to the United States to play for the Delaware Blue Bombers in Wilmington, Delaware for three seasons.

Throughout his coaching and professional playing career, he has always worked with youth outside of basketball.
