I'll also be doing a lot of editing film of both opponents and our own players, as well as scouting." His position also allows him to travel with the team while simultaneously working on a master's degree in educational leadership.
"I get to coach. It's a great foot in the door," he explained. "I like being a part of kids' lives and being a role model."
After earning back-to-back First Team All-East Bay Athletic League honors in 2006 and 2007 at San Ramon Valley High. Fuca enrolled at The Master's College in southern California.
He became a Golden State Athletic All Conference honoree in 2010 and 2011 and finished his tenure in Santa Clarita with 1,071 career points while earning a degree in Communications.
Fuca then turned professional, earning Most Valuable Player honors while scoring 24.0 points a game as a member of the Vilsbiburg Baskets team. In the 2013-14 season, he played in Germany and led that squad in assists. He also coached a youth team while there.
"The people in Reno love basketball, there's a rich tradition here," Fuca said, alluding to the days when Wolf Pack stars Nick Fazekas, Luke Babbitt and Armon Johnson were heating up the court.
