How Long Island's potato farms and sleepy beach towns transformed into the country's premier high school basketball region in an amazing 20-year span. Told through 25+ interviews with the schoolboy stars who became coaches, with special attention to the history that made it happen.
His story, in short
Keith grew up on Long Island in the 1960s and 70s and fell in love with basketball early, becoming a standout player — before a hard stretch pulled him away from the game for years. Faith and family brought him back, this time as a coach. That comeback set the course for everything he's built since.
As a high school athletic director, his programs won multiple state championships, and he coached a boys basketball team to a state runner-up finish. He then became the founding athletic director at Providence School in Santa Barbara, building an athletics program from scratch — and leading the girls basketball team to a CIF championship within a few years of the school's first season.
