i'm still upset that Coach Signeski was fired after DJ's junior year for having the audacity to bench the kid for curfew violations during the season-ending tourney - funny that after DJ's senior season (with worse stats than his jr or soph years), Coach Zomer was voted "coach of the year" but never developed DJ
High school provides students a great apportunity to play national level and high school level and their photos memorabilia are placed in the school yearbooks where everyone can see. High school photo memorabilia saved students memorable photo and their greats.
