West Potomac basketball coach David Houston returns to reflect on a memorable 2024-25 season that ended in controversy, share his experiences balancing life as both a coach and a sports dad, and preview his team and the Northern Virginia basketball scene for 2025-26. We discuss the increasing movement of players between public and private schools, his own family’s decisions about where his children should play, and what continues to inspire his coaching after 25 years on the sidelines. We wrap up with a look at the players and teams expected to make an impact in the upcoming season.
