The mission of Clackamas Cage Camps Basketball Development is stated as “Play Better, Play Smarter Basketball Development Camps for Individuals and Teams.” The camp director, Gus (also referred to as Coach Gustovich and Steven Gustovich in testimonials), has been camp director of Clackamas Cage Camps for over 20 years. Gus began his coaching career in 1981 in Glencoe High School boys basketball as an assistant coach and was part of the program’s first state championship in 1983. Over the next eight years, he served as head varsity coach and assistant varsity coach at Oregon City, Estacada, Rex Putnam, and Clackamas high schools. As an assistant coach, he helped Rex Putnam High School win a league championship and reach the State Final Four in 1990, and he assisted Clackamas High School in earning a second-place finish in the 1994 state championships. As a head coach, he took Estacada to the state playoffs in 1989 and guided Clackamas High boys basketball from 1994 to 2005. Under his leadership, Clackamas advanced to the State Championships in 9 of 11 years, with state playoff appearances in 1997, 1998, and 2004, “Sweet Sixteen” finishes in 1995, 1999, 2002, and 2003, an “Elite Eight” appearance in 2001, and a third-place state finish in 2003. His Clackamas teams earned league championships in 2001, 2002, and 2003, and he is noted as the only coach in Clackamas history to win three consecutive league titles. Gus’ record at Clackamas High is 212 wins and 88 losses, a 71% winning percentage. In 2001 and 2002, he was named “Three Rivers League Coach of the Year.” Gus has traveled throughout the Northwest doing clinics and working with coaches of all levels.
One testimonial from Tamie Woginrich, Head Coach of Newberg Girls Basketball, states that Steven Gustovich has worked with her team by performing mini clinics and that he is one of a handful of people in Oregon to whom she would send her players for skill development. Another testimonial from Sydney Azorr, CHS Class of 2014 and WOU player, states that over six years of participating in Gus’ basketball camps and clinics, her skills and fundamentals were greatly improved and that she does not think she would have earned a scholarship to play college basketball without his help and training. A parent, Tony Mehalovich, states in a testimonial that Coach Gustovich is an excellent coach for boys and girls at all levels, that his knowledge of the game and ability to identify and coach fundamentals are the best the parent has seen, and that he inspires trust in parents by demonstrating genuine concern for the kids he coaches.
