Episode Notes

Welcome to the first episode of The “Be Early" Podcast with Coach Gavin Cree, where I explore the history of Mercer Island boys basketball through conversations with former players, coaches, opponents and more. In this episode, I introduce myself, my history with Mercer Island basketball and discuss my motivation for starting the podcast.  The episode finishes with a letter I wrote to Coach Ed Pepple last fall.  I hope you'll share the podcast with those connected to or interested in Mercer Island basketball.
