  • "We've known Coach Trevor through middle school, and he's been helping Mason over the past couple of years. Mason plays on the varsity middle school team and CYC Jets and his game has greatly improved with Coach Trevor's help. Coach Trevor is able to identify what Mason needs to fix and helps him drastically in those areas. Mason is a strong inside player, but with Coach Trevor's help, Mason's shooting and dribbling skills have drastically improved, making him a more well-rounded player. He always updates us on what Mason can work on by sending us videos of his training along with explanations on what to improve. Coach Trevor has been a great coach and mentor for Mason."
