Assistant Coach
Dennis DeSanctis fell in love with the game of basketball at the age of 7 and it has been a part of his life ever since. Coach Dennis grew up playing AAU and continued through high school at Mountlake Terrace. He first started coaching over 20 years ago and loves helping develop players to reach their potential on and off the court. He coached last year for the first time with Mill Creek Warriors and fell in love with the program. Although it is a basketball program, it feels more like a family that wants to see each and every kid succeed through hard work. He believes that hard work and putting the team before yourself will lead to great results. Coach Dennis likes to put an emphasis on defensive intensity and effort as that will translate to each game and give you a chance to win every single time.
