Camp Description:
The elite basketball camp, run by UCCS Head Women’s Basketball Coach Corey Laster, is designed to give high school basketball players an experience to develop their skills to a highly competitive level.  The camp will feature advanced fundamental instruction and the chance to play with college level talent in 5 on 5 and 3 on 3 games.  Campers will have the opportunity to learn what college coaches are looking for in high school players and what they need to improve on in those areas.  Each camper will get individual consultation on their shot and have the chance to get specific coaching in post or perimeter play.

UCCS Division II Head Women’s Basketball Coach Corey Laster is excited to host this camp, designed to teach basketball skills and fundamentals in a fun and supportive environment.  Most recently, Coach Laster was an assistant for three seasons at NCAA Division I Bucknell.  Prior, he orchestrated an eight win turnaround as the head coach for Division III Defiance (Ohio) College in 2006-2007.  Laster started his coaching career at Taylor University in Fort Wayne, Indiana, as an assistant men’s basketball coach in 1999 and in 2000 became the head coach of the women’s program, remaining in that position for three seasons.
