The Coach
Most trainers have played the game. Very few have lived it at three levels at once. Zay battled through the college ranks, earned a pro jersey with the Salem Capitals — where the #0 on his back became a calling card — and now runs the program as Head Basketball Coach at McNary High School.
That's the difference you feel in every session: player-level skill, pro-level standards, and a head coach's eye for exactly what gets athletes on the floor — and keeps them there.
Sharpened against grown competition — the footwork, pace, and toughness that separate high school stars from next-level guards.
Suited up professionally in front of his hometown. Pro reps mean pro details: reads, angles, and habits most trainers have never had to execute for a paycheck.
He doesn't just build skills — he builds players coaches trust. Train with the guy who decides what earns minutes, and learn exactly what wins them.
The Philosophy
Talent gets you noticed. Motor gets you minutes. Every High Motor Hoops session is engineered around one belief: the player who dictates — the pace, the physicality, the fight — is the player who wins. We don't train athletes to react. We train them to attack.
First to the floor. First to contact. First to every 50/50 ball. We build players who impose their will from the opening tip — because the aggressor sets the terms, and everyone else just responds to them.
Speed without decisions is chaos. Every drill runs at game speed with a read attached, so the habits you build under fatigue are the ones that show up in the fourth quarter.
There's no secret drill. There's a standard — and it's relentless. When conditioning, effort, and detail become your identity, talent finally gets to do its job.



Training
Every session is planned, timed, and coached like a pro workout — because that's the only kind Zay knows how to run.
