It didn’t take long for St. Paul (Minn.) Cretin-Derham Hall coach Jerry Kline Jr. to notice it. His freshman point guard had something different about him. Yes, he could score, but the 15-year-old was a floor general. One that knew what pass to make and when, while he also possessed a leadership trait of a veteran playmaker.  Tre Holloman was a unique figure.

Sure enough, the emerging star earned the title as a sophomore and never looked back.
