On March 30 - April 1, he will lead the Knight Raiders in their Final Four title defense in Washington, DC.

Tech senior Zachary Haskin (Wichita Falls, TX) and freshman Trey Modlin (Ohio) tied for first in the United States g/15 Championship, under 2000 section. They both scored 4 points in 6 games.
