Ex-San Ramon Valley player Tollefson named as important for USF next season

USF athletics writes about the major contributors this season (and next) for the Dons and former San Ramon Valley frontcourter Mark Tollefson is prominently featured:

[USF Coach Rex] Walters calls [Mark] Tollefsen “the most talented post player” he has ever coached but knows talent will only take a player so far.

“Mark can be a player-of-the-year type if he dedicates himself to the weight room, eats right and takes care of his body. There's not much he can't do on a basketball floor if he gets bigger and stronger, becomes a better post player, becomes a better shooter and gets better attacking the basket. He does all of those things pretty good right now but just he could be really scary with 15-20 extra pounds of muscle.

“He can win a dunk contest, a three-point contest and a sprint contest. That's a heck of a combination. Now it's a matter of putting all of those things together.”
