What a Gifted Player Love his. Game,and A Great Embasitor of the Game My Condolences Family 1Love ❤❤❤

Michael was my coach for one week at Pocono Mountain Basketball camp run by Bill Foster and Harry Litwack.

He was a great role model for me at a young age. He was caring for all his players and we developed close relationships with him that week.

I loved his laugh.

Later in the evening all the coaches that played in college at the time would play inside the gym. That was fun to watch, great action.

Sad to hear of his passing.
