Coach “Megz” is entering her 3^rd year of coaching high school girls basketball. In the fall of 2009 she joined Coach Goldie’s staff at Redmond High School and never looked back. Coach Megz was the JV Coach at Redmond for the 2009-2010 season and then followed Goldie to the Plateau to be an Assistant in the Eastlake program for the 2010-2011 season. She is so thankful to be a part of such a welcoming and tight knit community. Coming off a fantastic year she is thrilled to continue coaching alongside Goldie and the Wolves for another season. She grew up in a basketball family in Seattle and though her first day of tryouts in 2^nd grade were terrifying, she quickly fell in love with the game and eventually became a standout player at Blanchet High School. Coach Megz was a member of teams that placed 2^nd in the 3A state tournament in both her freshman and sophomore years. While in high school she played basketball for the Seattle magic, as well as became a charter member of the Puget Sound Flight program, where she played for two years.

During her sophomore and senior seasons she was voted to the league all-star team for defense…(FACT: DEFENSE WINS GAMES!!!!). After dedicating most of her life to playing basketball she has switched gears and has found a passion in coaching. Coach Megz is lucky to have grown up with some fantastic role models, specifically her family, who showed her how to love the game. She believes that basketball is more than just a sport, it is an opportunity to learn about life and all it has to offer. Having learned some valuable and tough life lessons through her many years of playing and coaching both basketball and lacrosse, she hopes to provide similar lessons for her players.

Assistant Coach- Marc Adams

Coach Adams is entering his 12th year of coaching basketball. He first coached in Gaithersburg, MD for his then 11 year old daughter, when he assisted a neighbor with a Boys and Girls Club team. Upon relocation to Seattle, Marc followed his daughter into the Eastlake Select program where he was an Assistant before taking a 5^th grade team as the Head Coach in 2001. During the next 10 years, Marc Head coached Eastlake Select 7^th through 9^th grade teams. During several of these years, Marc also coached the Eastlake high school teams during the fall and June. One of his best memories is of assisting Sara Goldie in Portland last June when our current Varsity team made the final in a 72 team draw tournament. In an effort to improve his knowledge of the game, Marc joined the Puget Sound Flight AAU program in 2006 and served as an Assistant & Head coach for 3 years as well as one year with Brent Hermanson and the Category 5 program that included Hannah Ostic, Ellie Martinez, and Alyssa Charlston, all Eastlake alum’s. The AAU experience was invaluable to Marc’s game management skills and exposed him to the summer college basketball recruiting circuit and all that it entails. He is now an avid reader of newspaper box scores as many of the girls he worked with are playing ball at the college level. Marc grew up on courts, fields, and courses and continues to enjoy tennis, golf, and running. He ran cross country and track, and played basketball throughout high school and was part of a state championship cross country team as a junior. It is a fond memory that has stayed with him to this day. He has thoroughly enjoyed watching 100’s of young women expand not only their game, but their confidence, maturity, decision making, and competitive spirit. Overcoming a fear, learning new things, getting out of your comfort zone are all things high on the list of life skills Marc hopes to impart. Marc and Leslie have been married for 32 years and have lived on both coasts and several cities in the Midwest over the years. They are proud of their two grown daughters, Maggie and Rachel.
