Rising Tide: David Radich
January 25, 2010 • written by Austin Gatdula
Being a leader and a captain is a title that not many people can earn. Though this may seem like a huge milestone for some, sophomore David Radich has earned the spot of team captain two years in a row. “He truly embodies the true idea of a captain and he goes the extra mile for his teammates and the school,” Coach Logan Irons said.
First introduced to basketball in sixth grade by his friends Radich has only been on the rise since. “High school basketball is much more competitive!” Radich stated. Only his second year into his high school basketball career, Radich has earned a glorious spot on the Junior Varsity team.
“Radich has proven to be leader not verbally, but through his actions. He doesn’t talk much but he lets his skills do the talking for him,” teammate Sean Regner said. Having major improvements from last years’ season, Radich seems to have a strong leadership attitude when on the court.
Despite the fact that he may be quite, Radich seems to always pull through and excite his teammates and the fans. “He puts all that he has on the court,” teammate sophomore Nikko McNeil said. “He always has that assassins mentality which puts our team in the scoring mode.”
Being a sophomore on junior varsity only gives Radich much more time to better his court skills, which will hopefully take him to the next level. As for his plans, “I just want to become an overall better player,” he said.
