Home Games

We are already 4-games into the season and not off to the best start. What's going on? Everyone asks. The solution or solutions appear to be easy for the outsider looking in. Sometimes, something so simple as our game becomes complicated when we let it. As coaches, that is the fun part and the challenge each day to make the solution even more simple for all of us. We are on our way. When you have people who care, it is a whole lot better to work on anything that needs improvement. Fortunately, I am surrounded by people who care, people who do not want to be mediocre, people who remind themselves there are standards of excellence to be followed, and people that are not afraid to work to get a desired result. How blessed I am to be in the midst of them as they develop.

Ready or Not...

We have one more practice before we open our 2011-12 season. This team has worked hard to be conditioned and ready to compete. Our scrimmages were good tests for us, but now comes the real test for this team who has been pre-seasoned picked to be #1 in the Conference. It is a long, tough competitive season and for our 4-seniors, they will set the stage for the rest of us. They know how to lead and they know what it takes each day to be successful on and off the court. I am excited for them and for their teammates. This week will give us a taste of what is to come in our own Conference. Teams that can play. Teams that know how to win. Teams that can compete. It will be challenging. It will be rewarding. It will be all that we want it to be. It will be truly why we do this day in and day out. So let the games begin.
