Quinn Keast Foundation - BC High School Basketball Championships

Quinn Keast Foundation
“NO REGRETS” Scholarship Criteria
Quinn Keast pursued his adopted mission of developing a “complete” game in the way that he played basketball
with undying determination and dedication to do his best. He played with tenacity, intensity and heart on both
ends of the floor. These qualities are not necessarily reflected on the score sheet, but every coach recognizes the
intangible and invaluable contribution to team success. Quinn was unable to fulfill his dream of playing basketball
