Project Triple Threat (PTT) 15U guard, Cole Bryant (St. Luke’s), made the most of his appearance at the NERR's Elite 75 for underclassmen.  According to NERR, "Bryant also seized this opportunity to make a name for himself. A big lead guard with a good build, Bryant has continued to develop his game and his frame since last year’s Elite 75. He was one of the more impressive guards with his ability to create, find the open man, and make quick released shots."

3X Northwest COY Shares Insight

I came across this the other day.  It's a brief interview, NBC Camps, did with Whitworth University head men's basketball coach, Matt Logie, who happens to be an old friend from my days in the Patriot League. Since taking over the Spokane-based NCAA Division III program, Coach Logie has lead his teams to five Northwest Conference (NWC) regular season and conference tournament championships. He's been named NWC Coach-of-the Year three times in 2012, 2014 and 2015. Obviously, Matt knows a thing or two about coaching, player development, and what it takes to get to the next level.  Please read. 

Q:  Generally, what are the top three skills young players should work on to improve their skills so they are prepared to pursue basketball at the college level?

A:  A lot of what I see out there is that everything seems to overemphasize developing athleticism. Obviously, we want athletes to be maximizing their full athletic potential, but a trainer is not going to be able to alter your God-given build and natural talents. In the long run, it is far more important for you to focus on improving your skill set. “The things I would want my son working on, as he becomes a middle school and high school athlete, would be things that are more foundational: 1) shooting, 2) footwork, and then 3) overall understanding and vision for the whole game and the whole court, not just yourself. Those three things, if done at a high level, are going to almost guarantee that you have a chance to play at the college level.

John Kelly, Fairfield Prep star and brother of PTT alum & Quinnipiac freshmen, Rich Kelly, has enrolled at NEPSAC AA notable, Chesire Academy. Following Kelly's move from AAU club, Middlesex Magic (MA), to CT-based, Project Triple Threat (PTT), the 6-foot-5 wing excelled; proving what many knew all along: Kelly is a coach's son, with good size, great intangibles, coachable, who can flat out shoot the basketball. What's more has been Kelly's commitment on both ends of the floor, having guarded multiple positions in July while improving his stock as a passer & perimeter rebounder.

Arguably, one our players who made the most of what we're trying to accomplish here at Project Triple Threat (PTT) is Westerly's Dave Tiedemann, Jr.  Doug Champion (great last name) with the Westerly Sun recently looked into Tiedemann's progress.  Doug's write-up below.

WESTERLY -- Westerly High’s David Tiedemann has set lofty goals for his upcoming senior year, and he’s taken some giant steps to reach them. The 6-foot-7 forward wants to play basketball in college and hopes that he can do so at a good academic school. As an honor-roll student and two-sport standout -- in golf as well as basketball -- at Westerly High, he decided this spring to focus on improving and expanding his basketball skills. He’s been doing so since May as a player on the top team for Project Triple Threat (Wallingford, Conn.), one of New England’s premier American Amateur Union (AAU) programs.  You can read the rest of the article HERE.
