Far Rockaway’s Very Own; Poly Prep’s Finest, Molloy College
Basketball Legend, and Professional Basketball Player.
Charlie impressed me when I walked in with one of his pro work outs late one night at St. Francis de Sales, in Far Rockaway, Queens. In this pod, he discusses his love of sports, his work ethic that he got from his father, Coach Marquardt, his time in the G League and Overseas, and his pursuit of his next pro contract. All that and more, my conversation with Charlie, now.

Where we’re going is way to high
Going where the day sky turns into night
I got the windows special tinted for the stars that get too bright
And I saved you a seat, so let’s ride“
