DMV Hoops Podcast – Episode 87 🎙️🏀
In Episode 87, Kurt and Chelsie sit down with Coach Mike G. Jones, III of DeMatha Catholic, the leader of one of the most storied high school basketball programs in the country.
Coach Jones gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how DeMatha approaches the stretch run of the season... from detailed film sessions to knowing when to lighten up practices to keep legs fresh and minds sharp. We dive into the balance between preparation and preservation when championships are on the line.
He also shares how being preseason picked to finish 7th became fuel for the Stags — a motivating force that shaped their mindset and helped drive this season’s success.
Inside the film room. Inside the locker room. Inside the mentality of a powerhouse.
This is Episode 87.
