Draft when the coach witnessed four players whom he helped

recruit and coach have their names called b\ Commissioner

David Stern on Draft Night. In addition to Butler*s selection,

three of his former pupils from Maryland - Dixon. Baxter

and Wilcox - also were selected. It is believed that no other

head coach in the nation had as broad a connection to the 2002 NBA Draft than Hahn.

Prior to coaching at Maryland. Hahn was the head coach

at Ohio University for three years where he compiled a 42-45

record and posted two winning regular seasons. He led Ohio

to the Mid-American Conference Tournament championship

game in 1988 and recruited and coached Paul Graham, the

Mid-American Conference Player-of-the-Year in 1989.

Using this experience. Hahn showed his coaching exper-

drew nationwide praise as he guided the Terps to a 2-2

23 J «»— IS flTI Head Coach m Billy Hahn I:

To show how loyal Hahn is to his players, one of the

first people he recruited out of high school was current

assistant coach Roland Houston. Houston was playing at Philadelphia's Martin Luther King High School when

Hahn was an assistant coach at the University of Rhode

Island. Hahn successfully recruited Houston to play for

the Rams and now has him as a part of his staff here at

La Salle.

Hahn is a 1975 graduate of the University of Maryland.

While an undergraduate, he was a three-year varsity letter-

winner on three of the best basketball teams Maryland

has fielded. He was a freshman in 1971-72 when the

Terps won the National Invitation Tournament; he was a

key reserve on the team that lost what is considered to be

the greatest game in ACC history (Maryland's 103-100

overtime setback against NC State in 1974). He captained

the team his senior year.

Hahn and his wife, Kathi, have been married since

1976. They have two children, a son, Matthew, and a CBS analyst Explorer and daughter, Ashley. Coach Hahn with

Roland Houston, who enters his fourth season with the Explorers, knew the dis- tance between Martin Luther

King High in Philadelphia to La Salle University was approximately five miles.

Yet it took Roland Houston

21 years to make the trip. Houston, who joined the

Explorer staff in mid- September of 1999, has done

quite a bit of traveling since his high school graduation

in 1978. That travel took him to the University of Rhode Island, and such overseas basketball stops as Nice. LeMans

and Limoges, all in France, then on to Spain. and Israel. Among his most memorable visits were to Limoges, where he caught up with an old friend and rival, former La Salle and

West Catholic High great Michael Brooks, who still maintains

residence in France. "Michael and I had played against each other and with each other a good while back in Philadelphia

and it was great being with him and competing with and against him." Houston said.

When he enrolled at Rhode Island, his coach was Jack

Kraft, who had coached Villanova to 1 1 post-season tourna-

ments before heading to New . "I was the first player

coach Kraft took from Philadelphia," Houston said, "and I

still try to stay in touch with him since he's not too far away

down in Stone Harbor (New Jersey)."

At Rhode Island, in what was then called the Eastern 8 before becoming the Atlantic 10. Houston played four sea-

sons, started for three and was captain in his senior year. Houston ironically enough was recruited to the University of Rhode Island by current Explorer head coach Billy Hahn. who was an assistant with the Rams at the time. All of Houston's time wasn't taken up with hoops. As a communica- tion major, he wrote for the school newspaper, produced jazz

shows and did an occasional stint on the campus station. While playing professionally overseas, he also got a taste of coaching and the business side of basketball, preparing

him for life after playing. He became involved in several ven- tures, including acting as a consultant for NBA players and would-be NBA players and always had his eyes on getting

into coaching full tilt.

Born in South Philadelphia. Houston transferred from Southern High to Martin Luther King early in his career and continued on his journey which has now taken him to La Salle University. Coach Houston and his wife Lisa live in Cherry Hill, New Jersey with their daughter Zuri. 26 Assistant Coach Joe Lombardi 2002-2003 La Salle Men's Basketball 2002-2003 La Salle Mens Basketball 2002-2003 La Salle Men's Basketball

"One of the great opportunities that college basketball can pro- vide a young man is a chance to see and experience the world. Not many people get the chance to travel to exotic locations or explore different cultures. To do this with your teammates and people that you really care about is extra-special. It gives you memories that last a lifetime.

We expect to take similar trips to Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Alaska during future seasons because we know how much the players enjoy them and learn from them."
