No one expected the University of Hawaii basketball team to win the Western Athletic Conference championship — no one, that is, but the players and coaches themselves. In this fascinating sports/motivational title, UH head coach Riley Wallace recounts how a diverse group of players from all over the world earned a bid to the "Big Dance" — the 2001 NCAA Championship Tournament. Co-written with team psychologists Michael D'Andrea and Judy Daniels, The Rainbow Circle of Excellence shows how lessons learned on the court can help members of any group lead successful, more satisfying lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A great book for ball players and fans,
By "patriotnumber1" (Honolulu, O'ahu, Hawai'i) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Rainbow Circle of Excellence (Paperback)
Riley Wallace, the long-time head basketbal coach at the University of Hawai'i, is one of college basketball's best. What's more, Wallace is one of the true class acts in sports.This book is a reflection of all that Wallace is, what he stands for and how he coaches. It is a very valuable tool for communicating to the young ballplayer (middle school and high school players should read this over and over), as well as provides insight for the basketball fan. Highly recommended.
