ST. MARY'S RYKEN HS.
LEONARDTOWN MD. 

St. Mary’s Ryken (SMR) is proud to announce the hiring of Patrick Behan as head boys basketball coach. He comes to SMR from St. John’s College High School in Washington, D.C. where he was the assistant boys varsity basketball coach. Both SMR and St. John’s are members of the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference (WCAC).

“The chance to lead a program in the best basketball conference in the country is an opportunity that I am not only excited about, but also thankful for,” said Behan. “Coach Dave Tallman did an excellent job in his time here and has left me a strong platform for success. I look forward to fully immersing myself in the SMR community, and working hard to produce the absolute best for the students on the court and in the classroom.”

His career includes coaching at St. Mary’s College of Maryland, Loudoun County High School (Leesburg, Virginia), and Team Takeover for 17U AAU (Amateur Athletic Union). Behan credits St. John’s Head Coach Sean McAloon with preparing him well to take on the head coaching position for SMR.

St. Mary’s Ryken is a Catholic, coeducational, college preparatory school community operated under the Xaverian Brothers’ sponsorship dedicated to academic excellence and individualized student growth. 

Students come from many different counties across the region including Anne Arundel, Calvert, Charles, King George, Prince George’s and St. Mary’s counties. 

Each year, approximately 99% of graduates go on to college and the Class of 2014 earned $12.7 million in scholarships.

SN: During the webcast, you mentioned that you value the fashion aspect of your sneakers more than the functional aspect. So being from DC, how important was it to have some sort of Foamposite material on your shoes?

KD: First off, function is still very important, and if it doesn’t work for me, then it doesn’t matter how good it looks. With Posite – I’ve been fighting for that for a while! That’s our culture here. If you look at the sales numbers for Foamposites, a lot comes from here, so I wanted to integrate that in my shoe and i’m glad they put it in.

Nike always listens to what I have to say, but for them, it’s all about the right timing to do certain things with my shoe as it moves forward and keeps getting better. So I proposed the idea of Posite a while ago, and they definitely surprised me with it on the KD7.

SN: What’s more impactful for you – the “DC” aspect of your shoe, or the “Weatherman” identity?


KD: For sure, the DC aspect. I can’t forget where I came from, and this place molded me to what I am – culturally, emotionally, physically, everything, you know. So i just wanted to give back and let people know where I come from, and it’s even more important that the kids get to experience it too. The Weatherman thing is cool and all, but DC is what I am.

 You may not have noticed, but the thermal graphic of the hurricane, which struck lightning at certain areas of the basketball court, actually maps out Kevin Durant’s shot chart during his career high 54-point game against the Golden State Warriors. A cool easter egg of info since you were probably distracted by the “Weatherman” graphics, so check out a the video once more.

Lewes, DE – June 18, 2014 – The Delaware Sports Commission has announced the national slate of high school teams that will participate in the return of the renowned Slam Dunk to the Beach basketball tournament, which will be held at Cape Henlopen High School from December 27-29, 2014. The field is headlined by several schools who annually occupy spots in the national rankings. Sunrise Christian Academy (Wichita, KS), Our Savior New American School (Centereach, NY), Gonzaga College High School (Washington, D.C.) and Ss. John Neumann-Goretti High School (Philadelphia, PA) will all spend their winter break in the First State.

Fourteen teams—representing seven states and the District of Columbia—will be competing in this year's event, with a fifteenth and final team to be announced at a later date. The tournament, long a staple of the national high school basketball calendar, is returning for the first time since 2003. For 13 years Slam Dunk to the Beach hosted some of the nation’s premier players, including LeBron James (’01), Dwight Howard (’03), Carmelo Anthony (’00) and J.J. Redick (‘01), all now NBA superstars. The new incarnation of the event is sure to provide a showcase for numerous stars of tomorrow.

Other national programs scheduled to participate include St. Vincent-St. Mary High School (Akron, NJ), Roselle Catholic High School (Roselle, NJ), Christ the King High School (Middle Village, NY), Gill St. Bernard’s School (Gladstone, NJ) and Mt. St. Joseph’s High School (Baltimore, MD).

“We are fortunate to have a field that features some of the top programs and players in high school basketball,” said Dr. Matthew Robinson, Chairman of the tournament as well as the Delaware Sports Commission. “With a field of this caliber, Cape Henlopen's gym is sure to be filled to capacity all three days of the tournament, which will not only provide an incredible atmosphere, but will also help bring patrons and visitors to the Delaware beaches during the winter season."

The Delaware teams were announced in March and include state champion Salesianum School (Wilmington, DE), Sanford School (Hockessin, DE), St. Georges Technical High School (St. Georges, DE), Caesar Rodney High School (Dover, DE) and Cape Henlopen High School (Lewes, DE).

The 2014 event will feature numerous Scout.com Top 100 players, including Cheick Diallo (Our Savior New American/Centereach, NY), Isaiah Briscoe (Roselle Catholic HS/Roselle, NJ), Damon Wilson (Our Savior New American/Centereach, NY), Chris Silva (Roselle Catholic HS/Roselle, NJ) and Bryant Crawford (Gonzaga College HS/Washington, D.C.) as well as top juniors V.J. King (St. Vincent-St. Mary HS/Akron, OH), Tyus Battle (Gill St. Bernard’s School/Gladstone, NJ) and Rawle Alkins (Christ the King HS/Middle Village, NY).

After two full years out of the league, veteran guard Delonte West is making the bold, necessary pivotal step towards resurrecting his NBA career by electing to participate in the Las Vegas Summer League and reaching an agreement to suit up for the Los Angeles Clippers.

 

His unwavering desire to once again play at the highest level is a goal he’s fixated on procuring for next season, one of the sources explained. The sources spoke on the condition of anonymity due to an official announcement yet to be made by the team.

Clippers head coach and Senior Vice President of Basketball Operations, Doc Rivers, has always been fond of West as a player and a person dating back to when he coached him as head coach of the Boston Celtics.

 

Summer League will allow him the platform to show not just the Clippers, but the entire league, that he hasn’t lost a step and that he’s still that versatile combo-guard threat that provides suffocating defense on a nightly basis.
