Testimonials
This page will periodically be updated when Coach Monahan
hears back from Coaches across the country in order to let you know what coaches have to
say about the value that HOOP CHAMPS, Inc. is bringing to their programs. Here are
some of the schools across the United States benefitting from the offerings of HOOP
CHAMPS, Inc.
"Coach Monahan provides a volume of set plays to free
your best offensive players and to exploit match-up advantages. He also shares plays that
attack special situations that are obviously vital to winning basketball. Coaches
interested in game-winning preparation should certainly consider adding these actions to
their portfolio."
Coach Herb Sendek - North Carolina
State University Raliegh, NC
"I spent less for everything offered by Coach Monahan than I did for a single pair
of basketball shoes. Its amazing how much better our team has become by implementing
many different Hoop Champs sets against man defense, zone defense and gimmick defenses
throughout the entire year. We are now getting great looks every time we inbound the ball
from underneath our own goal. This was, by far, the best money I had ever spent on any
basketball materials. "
Coach Rich Brennan - Montour High School - Pittsburgh, PA
"I received Coach Monahans offensive sets
midway through the 1999-2000 season to see if there were any new sets we could add for the
regular season stretch run. With the new sets from Hoop Champs, we were able to leverage
many of those plays to help us get crunch time scores in a number of close
games as we advanced all the way the the Pennsylvania State Championship Game. Coach
Monahans Hoop Champs materials have become a vital fixture of Quaker Valley
Basketball."
Coach Mike Mastroianni -
Quaker Valley High School - Sewickley, PA
"Coach Monahan has put
together a complete package of set plays to use against man, zone, and even
gimmick defenses. You should strongly consider the entire Hoop Champs series
to add to your own compliment because they work great for us at the Collegiate
level."
Coach Chris Denker - Santa
Clara University (WBB) - Santa Clara, CA
"Our first section game against Franklin they stifled
us with a Triangle-and-2 costing us a 12 point loss. I called Coach Monahan and he
overnight shipped me all nine volumes. After teaching my players many of the sets in
Volume 5 - Set Plays vs. Gimmick Defenses, we picked apart the same opponent like surgeons
and gave them a 15 point thrashing of their own. "
Coach Joe Votino - Kennedy
Christian H.S (4-Time PIAA-A State Champions)
"I recently ordered Chapter 1 - Man to Man Plays from
double stack, Chapter 4 - Set Plays vs. Zone Defenses, Chapter 6 - Set Plays to Score Out
of Bounds Underneath and Chapter 8 - The INCREDIBLE AMMO Defense and I have found these
set plays to be the best I have found in years. We used AMMO defense in our first
two scrimmages and it worked to perfection resulting in steals, and the opposing coaches
getting very upset. Thank you very much!"
Coach Dennis O'Keefe -
Bishop Ahr High School - Edison, NJ
"I can't describe how excited I was to recieve the
entire set of Hoop Champs materials this week. I find myself reading it
constantly. It really gives me great confidence as I go into our upcoming season.
I feel I now have have a solid direction and can build an excellent game plan as we
start our winter program. I know we'll be able to handle any 'bumps in the road'
throughout the season by using so much of what I received. Thanks Coach Monahan and
I'll be checking the web site for any more future Chapters."
Coach John Costello - Broad
Run High School - Ashburn, VA
"As soon as I received the materials, we put in the
first set against a zone called "NOW", we called it "Dog" and the
first six times we ran it, we scored every time. It was incredible! Teams just don't know
how to defend it. We're looking to put in so many more of the plays from HOOP CHAMPS, Inc
in for this up-coming season."
Coach Marlin Hammond - Lincoln High
School - Lincoln, MI
"Im always looking for great sets to run against
zone defenses and Coach Monahan now has LJC extending zone defenses and lobbing for dunks
with these unbelievable plays. I put a couple in over the summer and if they work at the
college level, theyll certainly be effective at the high school level."
Coach Eric Grundman -
Lackawanna Junior College - Scranton, PA
"We immediately had great success with the Volume 6 -
the Out-of-Bound sets underneath our own basket. As our young players get more confidence
and discipline, the materials from HOOP CHAMPS are going to help us turn our program
around. The Tips for Success volume help me to make better decisions during the game by
looking for specific things during the game."
Coach Marcus Taylor -
Stewart High School - Lumpkin, GA
"Im a new Coach for our girls team and our
players were so excited when we implemented many of the man-to-man and zone plays. Every
one of those that we used got us great shots. Hoop Champs is definitely going to help us
turn our program around. We are going to implement the AMMO defense this upcoming
season."
Coach Bob Hartig - Timberline

from year to year; from 1st half of District play to 2nd half of
District play. Also, we never run the same practice now because your Hoop Champs materials
allow us to put in new plays in our practices and it really keep our practices focused
because were always putting in something new from Hoop Champs. The materials helped
us get through a great playoff run last year as we were able to get great scoring
opportunities as each play worked to perfection."
