What they are saying about Coach Mason:

"In so many ways I think of Coach Mase as caring. When we were learning to be better basketball players, he would always spend his free time explaining what I need to work on and why. Through his drills, and lectures I have learned how to think smart when on the court. I acknowledge the fact that he is a very smart player. This is why he has helped me to improve my thinking process when in the place of a basketball player. He is a very encouraging, and caring coach."
