NEWS: 2027 - 6’7 SF Braden Wright (@brxdenwright) has moved and enrolled at Grayson County, he tells @NextUpRecruits.
Wright is an athletic wing with high intangibles and an impressive playmaking ability. Averaged 12.5 points this season for Edmonson County.
Mark Few explains the process Gonzaga uses to work on mental toughness and adversity.
"We spend probably 25-30% of the athlete's time now on mental."
Then he explained what that looks like: "We do this thing called PGMs - Personal Growth Mondays."
"We start every Monday with this Personal Growth Monday. Staff, myself, coaches aren't allowed in there. It's just the players and Travis Knight, our strength coach and mental coach."
They invest the time every week. You can't let the mental game be an afterthought.
"They can dive into a myriad of anything that's currently happening or that they've requested...Processing pressure. Processing expectations. Lack of confidence. Hitting adversity. Handling success."
The best teams train the mind, the body, and develop the person.
Your mind is affected by your daily thoughts, habits and unconscious biases.
Mental fitness helps you build resilience and thrive.
Without investing time in mental fitness, managing stress, anxiety, and challenges becomes harder.

After a great visit and conversation with Coach Karn I have decided to commit to Brescia. I feel that all the late nights in the gym the many advertises that i have faced has finally paid off. I am thankful for this opportunity and i’m excited for what the future might hold.
2027 - 6’7 G/F Braden Wright (@brxdenwright) of Kentuckiana Hoops (17U) was a standout performer at the God’s Glory AAU Jamboree.
Wright has good positional size, a smooth shot from three, high intangibles, and is a very good passer - due to him playing PG since he was young.
