From the NFL to the Sideline.
Coach Wright.
Shareece coaches the varsity secondary at Aquinas High School in San Bernardino, CA, pouring NFL-level knowledge back into the next generation.
Building the Next Generation
Not many high school athletes get coached by someone who played at USC, was drafted in the third round, and spent eight seasons in the NFL. Shareece brings all of it to the sideline at Aquinas: the technique, the film study, the mental toughness, the understanding of what it actually takes to play at the next level.
But it goes deeper than X's and O's. He connects these kids with resources, mentors, and opportunities they wouldn't otherwise have access to. He opens doors. He makes calls. He shows up.
For Shareece, coaching is the most direct way to take everything the game gave him and pour it back into the community that shaped him.

Everything the Game Gave Him, He Gives Back
Eight seasons in the NFL taught Shareece more than how to play cornerback. It taught him how to prepare, how to compete under pressure, how to recover from failure, and how to carry yourself as a professional. That knowledge doesn't expire when you retire.
At Aquinas, he teaches more than coverage techniques. He gives these kids a window into a world most of them have never seen: what a college visit looks like, how to talk to a recruiter, what the daily discipline of a professional athlete actually requires. The resources, the connections, the blueprint.
Shareece grew up in the Inland Empire. He knows what it means to come from a community where the path to the next level isn't obvious. He's living proof that it exists, and now he's standing on the sideline making sure the next kid from San Bernardino can see it too.
"The game gave me everything. The least I can do is make sure these young men get the same knowledge, the same resources, and the same belief in themselves that somebody once gave me."
