TOM CREAN

VICTOR OLADIPO
DEMATHA HS.
HYATTSVILLE MD.
 
So what makes for Crean’s affinity for DMV basketball talent?
“There’s a year-round toughness there that doesn’t just come up in big games, but shows up in players whenever they step on the court” Crean told me during a conversation at the Hoophall Classic. “Not only are there ongoing camps and clinics, but those guys are well-coached. The type of talent that comes out of that area is just unbelievable.”

Crean went on to cite Oladipo as someone who embodies the toughness and potential lying within many of the region’s players. That’s why the Hoosiers coach makes a point to visit the area any time his schedule allows, as was the case last month when he and his entire staff attended the Team Takeover Hoops Festival at DeMatha.
