I coach because….. because I love the game and all that it has given me in my life. I feel honored to coach at Regis Jesuit with such outstanding young men that we have in our program each and every year. I also feel blessed to work with the terrific coaches and men that I have on my staff.

Favorite memory from coaching: Meeting with Joel Tribelhorn after the trip home after losing in the District finals to go to State in 1983 and sharing a hug with Joey Ptasinski immediately after winning the State Championship in 2009.

My coaching philosophy: I try to put my heart and soul in the game and always try to do it the right way.

Favorite motivational quote: “Your Attitude and Hard Work are your only guarantees.”

Inspirational coaching figure: Coach Pat Riley Favorite pre-game ritual: Remind myself that I’m very thankful for the opportunity to coach and still be involved in the game of basketball.

Coach Dave Willsea

Coach Brad Dorais

Coach Willsea is a native of Colorado and played basketball at Gateway High School, where he was a four-sport athlete. After graduating from the University of Wyoming, he returned home to teach and coach basketball. He has been coaching high school basketball in Colorado for over 20 years. Coach Willsea and his wife, Tanya, have three kids; Tavian is 17, Isabelle is 14, and Domini is turning 13. Coach Willsea feels blessed to be at RJHS.

Coach Dorais has been teaching and coaching for 28 years. This is his second year coaching at Regis Jesuit. He was varisty head coach for 13 years at Pagosa Springs, Mesa Ridge and Cherokee Trail when it opened in 2003-04. He has also coached boys and girls tennis. Coach Dorais currently teaches math at Cherokee Trail, including IB. He is married to Kati, who has taught at Regis Jesuit for 19 years and they have three children: Morgan - 18, Joe - 16, Haley - 14, and Jackson - 8.

Coaching for: JV I coach because… I enjoy building relationships with our players. I want to encourage and guide them to be better players, but more importantly, better men. I find it rewarding, and hope to give each player a memorable and terrific experience.

Favorite memory from coaching at RJ: I have so many great memories of coaching at RJ. To limit it to one single experience is nearly impossible. I think winning the third State Championship stands out. Not many people outside of RJ gave that team a chance, and it was wonderful seeing all of our players share in that special moment, especially several of the guys who started their high school basketball, playing at my level.

My coaching philosophy Hard Work, Discipline, Integrity, and Class are my cornerstones. By teaching these qualities, I can better ensure the positive impact my players will have on the world around them.

Favorite motivational quote: “Winners are not people who never fail.

Winners are people who never quit.”

Inspirational figure: My parents Favorite tv show: Mountain Men Favorite music / band: Imagine Dragons Favorite professional team: New York Knicks Favorite professional player: Danny Manning Favorite food: Fried Chicken Favorite dessert: Chocolate Chip Cookies What is your pre-game ritual: I like to calmly sit and just get lost in my thoughts.

Coaching for: Freshman red I coach because ... I love watching the players grow, develop, and come together for something bigger than themselves. There are so many life lessons that basketball teaches that I am glad to be a part of it, and hopefully build life-long relationships with my players.

Coaching philosophy: Get players to achieve more than they thought possible by having positive attitudes and great effort (the 2 things that they have control of), putting the goals of the team above their individual goals, and doing it all with great enthusiasm.

Favorite motivational quote: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

Inspirational figure: John Wooden Favorite tv show: The Wire Favorite band or music: Led Zeppelin or Frank Sinatra Favorite professional team: Denver Nuggets - but prefer college basketball Favorite professional player: Mugsy Bogues Favorite food: Smothered Burritos Favorite dessert: Ice cream Pregame ritual: A little quiet time

Coach Taylor Kallsen ’15 Coach Kallsen moved to Colorado in 2012 and attended Regis Jesuit his sophomore year through senior year. He played three seasons under Coach Shaw and was a four-year letterman.

He attended Saint John’s University (MN) and graduated with a degree in Elementary Education. He currently teaches kindergarten at Canyon Creek Elementary in Aurora.

Favorite motivational quote: “If you want something you never had, you must be willing to do something you have never done.” - attributed to Thomas Jefferson Favorite professional team: San Antonio Spurs Favorite professional player: Stephen Curry Favorite food: Spaghetti Favorite dessert: Chocolate cake

Coaching for: Freshman white I coach because ... Basketball taught me some of the most important lessons in life. How to win, how to lose, how to work, and how to be a good teammate. I hope to help other young men grow in these areas to be better prepared for their lives ahead both in and out of the gym.
