                    [Summary] => There wasn’t much Eddie Decena couldn’t do on a basketball court. He was a shifty ballhandler, a tough defender, and a deadshot. You couldn’t ask more from a player.


Above all, Decena loved the game with a passion. When his left knee crumbled and retirement was imminent, Decena turned to coaching. He even became a referee in high school tournaments. In his twilight years, Decena continued to stay close to basketball, working out of an organization called Rings which was dedicated to produce athletes as Christian gentlemen.
