Trainers of the Season: Drew Tapscott & Mary Lansing

At Evolution Basketball, our trainers do more than just run drills—they inspire, mentor, and push athletes to become their best. This season, we’re proud to spotlight two members of our training staff who have made an incredible impact in the gym: Drew Tapscott and Mary Lansing.

Drew Tapscott – Advanced Training

Drew joined the Evolution team this spring and has already brought a wealth of knowledge and energy to the court. A former standout at Kettle Run High School, Drew continued his playing career at Bridgewater College before spending time at Pitt-Greensburg, where he further sharpened his game.

Now a leader in our Advanced Training program, Drew channels his experience into helping athletes prepare for elite competition. His ability to connect with players, break down skills, and challenge them to compete at a high level makes him a valuable member of our staff. In just a short time, Drew has established himself as a trusted trainer with a bright future ahead at Evolution.

Mary Lansing – Fundamental Training

In only her second full season with Evolution, Mary has become a strong and steady presence in the gym. Known for her positivity, energy, and ability to command a room, Mary creates an environment where players feel both motivated and supported.

A UVA graduate and former cross-country runner, Mary brings a unique athletic background and competitive drive to her training. Originally from Albany, NY, Mary now plays a key role in our Fundamental Training program, helping young athletes build confidence and core basketball skills. She has quickly become a favorite among athletes and families alike, embodying the values we aim to instill at Evolution.
