    “I have known coach Kardok for over ten years. He is inquisitive, intelligent, and extremely positive. One of his best attributes is his ability to connect with players and staff members, as he has a gift of making people feel comfortable and valued. He is a hard worker and has great passion for the game of basketball,” Larranaga said of Kardok.
