Marshall Cho is the Founder of Meadow Park Basketball offering training, camps, and clinics in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Marshall began his career as an educator through the Teach For America program, teaching mathematics in the South Bronx and Harlem and serving as the boys basketball coach at Future Leaders Institute, where he led them to a New York City Charter School Championship.Fate then led him to Mozambique, where Marshall worked as a volunteer coach and instructor with the Mozambican National Basketball Federation as well as the varsity boys basketball coach at the American International School of Mozambique, a program that he launched and developed. During his time in Africa, Marshall also served as a coach for the NBA's Basketball Without Borders Africa and led various volunteer efforts such as conducting basketball clinics with local basketball clubs and rehabilitating basketball courts through partnerships with Hoops 4 Hope and the U.S. Embassy.Returning to the U.S., Marshall worked as an assistant coach at DeMatha Catholic High School in Hyattsville, Md. During his time there, DeMatha won two WCAC championships, compiled an 88-19 record, and sent four players to the NBA: Victor Oladipo, Jerian Grant, Quinn Cook, Jerami Grant. He then embarked upon his next chapter back in his home state as Director of Basketball Operations at the University of Portland for the Portland Pilots.Marshall served for eight seasons as the varsity boys basketball coach at Lake Oswego High School, where he earned the distinction of being among Oregon's first Asian American varsity boys basketball coaches. During Marshall's tenure, he won the Three Rivers League title for three consecutive seasons as he was named league Coach of the Year each year.Marshall worked as the head coach for consecutive years (2024 & 2025) with the World Select team at the Nike Hoop Summit, where he had volunteered with Team USA in years past. He also worked as a court coach at USA Basketball's Men's Junior National Team Minicamp in conjunction with the NCAA Final Four and as the camp lead instructions director for the Yao Foundation Camp in China.On this episode Mike & Marshall discuss the critical need to prioritize skill development over competition in youth basketball, advocating for a shift toward a more balanced ratio of practice to games. In our discussion, we delve into the systemic issues that have led to an environment where the emphasis on winning has overshadowed the essential learning process inherent in training. We explore the significance of fostering a culture wherein young athletes can engage in meaningful practice sessions that promote skill acquisition, rather than merely participating in games for the sake of competition. The conversation also highlights the insights from Marshall's extensive coaching career and his commitment to nurturing the next generation of players. This episode ultimately highlights the essential role that coaches play in shaping not only skilled basketball players but also well-rounded individuals, ready to face the challenges of life.Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @hoopheadspod for the latest updates on episodes, guests, and events from the Hoop Heads Pod.Make sure you're subscribed to the Hoop Heads Pod on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and while you're there please leave us a 5 star rating and review.

The Good Counsel vs. DeMatha high school football rivalry is one of the most storied matchups in the country. Both programs boast a rich tradition of excellence, producing elite talent that often transitions to college and NFL success. DeMatha, with its decades of dominance under legendary coach Bill McGregor, set the standard for high school football with its physicality and deep rosters. Good Counsel emerged as a formidable rival in the 2000s, particularly under coach Bob Milloy, building a powerhouse program that could challenge DeMatha's reign. Their annual clash is marked by intense competition, dramatic finishes, and passionate fanbases, often with championship implications on the line. Beyond the scoreboard, this rivalry represents the pride and prestige of two schools that have defined high school football on a national level.

If you're new to our show, each of the previous 12 seasons have had a different theme, a different format, and a different approach to unpacking and dissecting both individual and organizational performance.These Rewind episodes take a look back at some my favorite shows in case you missed them the first time around… or in case you'd like to give them a second listen.I hope you enjoy, and more importantly, I hope this Rewind episode helps you Raise Your Game!In this episode I am joined by my friend David DeWolf, the President and CEO of 3Pillar Global and the best-selling author of The Product Mindset. David and I took a deeper dive into a story about former DeMatha point guard James Robinson… and how the lesson I learned about bouncing back directly applies to business leadership. You'll hear this story as I performed it in studio.What makes the best the best? Ultimately the best are where they are because of the mindset, habits, and rituals they have—both in their respective “arenas,” but also in private, during the unseen hours. Success isn't something that happens to you. It's something you attract and you create. Successful people do the little things better than everyone else because they know all the big things arise from them. The highest performers in all walks of life have taken full ownership. They got to where they are and have stayed there because they have chosen to establish, tweak and repeat positive habits. They understand that you can't be selective when it comes to excellence, that how we do anything is how we do everything.Sustain Your Game teaches you how to bring your A game to every area of your life. With advice from top CEOs, journalists, social scientists, and more, you'll learn the framework for how to beat stress, stagnation, and burnout. Sustain Your Game will help you be the best in your arena, wherever that may be.Sustain Your Game if available now at http://www.SustainYourGameBook.comPlease make sure to join the conversations at @AlanSteinJr on all major social platforms, go to AlanSteinJr.com to subscribe to my Game Changer monthly emails.Additionally, you can order the audiobook of Raise Your Game: High Performance Secrets from the Best of the Best at http://www.Audible.com or wherever audiobooks are sold.

Kameron Taylor was playing on the Freshman team his first year at Dematha, before joining the varsity in his junior season. He went under the radar during his time their playing behind guys like Quinn Cook, Victor Oladipo, Jerian Grant, and many other future professionals! He winded up at a small division 2 school called Seton Hill, and from there Kameron blossomed into a player that today, many ask how so many people let fly under the radar? In this episode, we touch on Kam's decision to stay at Dematha instead of transferring out, his decision to attend Seton Hill, and how he has been able to climb the ranks of Europe coming from a small school. We unpack his rise through Germany, and eventually, making it to the pinnacle of overseas basketball playing in the Euroleague with Maccabi Tel Aviv, and what that accomplishment meant to him. We then get to him earning an opportunity to play NBA Summer League with the Phoenix Suns, running into Steve Nash, and getting his first start Vs. The Lakers in primetime! Next Kam broke down his decision to come play in Spain for Girona, alongside future Hall of Famer Marc Gasol.
