TEAM & CHARACTER
We emphasize building strong team relationships, sportsmanship, and leadership on and off the court. Players learn the importance of supporting teammates, communicating effectively, and showing respect for the game and others.
HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT
3D emphasizes more than just offensive skills. We prioritize defensive concepts, and a concentrated focus on game IQ, strategy, court awareness, and in-game decision-making. The entire player is developed so they can contribute on both ends of the floor.
ACCESIBLE EXCELLENCE
We provide high-quality coaching and competitive opportunities close to home, making top-level basketball development achievable for all players. By keeping travel limited and costs manageable, we ensure every athlete has the chance to grow, compete, and improve.
Continue your Growth
Loyola Academy’s core principles, foundations, and team concepts will be emphasized in every practice and game. Our goal is to instill the habits, mindset, and team-first approach that define how Loyola plays the game the right way. These are the values that make Loyola Academy one of the most respected and successful programs in the state.
With 17 years of experience on the Loyola Academy varsity staff, Coach Wolfe brings a wealth of knowledge and championship-level culture to the 3D program. Athletes will train using the same skills, concepts, and foundations that have made Loyola one of the state’s premiere programs. Our coaching focuses on every dimension of the game—defensive concepts, offensive execution, basketball IQ, and playing the right way.
