Hi Girls,
Coach West can make your t-shirts (RTS). Using the program front for a guide it will say:
Halifax Academy Arched Letters around basketball
EPIC
CHAMPIONS Overlayed on top of basketball background
2011
JV Girls Basketball Reverse arched around basketball background
Shirt color: Turquoise Blue (They also have Green turquoise and Royal Blue)
Back of shirt: Your first name at the top of the back:
Tournament Brackets on the back with Halifax as winner
I have your sizes from team t shirts at the beginning of the year: If you need different let me know.
Ryanne and MeganK were not at the meeting, I need to know if they want a t-shirt. Someone please find out and email me at bmayunc@earthlink.net.
The cost of the T-shirt will be $10.00 or so. You will need to be able to pay me before getting your shirt so we can close the deal.
Anything you think I need to know about these shirts get the word to me quick. Thanks.
I will order as soon as I hear if MeganK and Ryanne want a shirt or not. Coach West is ready to print he says.
I think it is going to be a cool shirt. Captains take the lead and get me any information needed.

Final Stats 2010/2011
Hi Girls,
These are the final stat totals for the year. Remember statistics only tell part of the story. For instance it does not factor in ball handling, leadership, defensive play, playing with focus and intensity etc. however without stats a team would have a difficult time in knowing where its strenghts and weaknesses were.
Scoring:
ppg=points per game. To find your total points multiply by the number of games you played in.
Kelly 9.3 ppg
Jamie 7.4 ppg
Emily 4.7 ppg
Mer 4.0 ppg
Alex 2.6 ppg
Lindsey 2.2 ppg
MeganK 14 points
Jordan 7 points
M&M 6 points
Kaela 2 points
Kim 2 points
Leslie 2 points
Brooke 1 point
FG Percentages:
Team FG% 33.8% 300/885
Kelly 49.7%
MeganK 38.9%
Emily 34%

Alex 26.4%
Lindsey 24.7%
M&M 25%
Jordan 17.6%
Kaela 12.5%
Kim 9.1%
Leslie 7.7%
If you study these percentages you will see why I prefer layups. In addition to generally higher FG%'s it also gives you a better chance to get the other team in foul trouble.
Team 3 point %: 17.4% 4/23 One of these makes was a 50 footer by Lindsey at Fayetteville Academy.
Free Throw Percentage:
FT% Team: 37.5% 123/328 If we had made 50% of our FT's we would have scored 41 more points or an additional 1.78 ppg. In close games that would be huge.
Jamie 44.1%
Kelly 41.3%
Mer 40.3%
Emily 34.1%
Alex 28.6%
MeganK 20%
Lindsey 14.3%
5 or less attempts:
Brooke 1/2
Jordan 0/1
Kaela 0/4

Team: Offensive: 144 (6.26 per game) Defensive 381 (16.56 per game)

Basic thoughts for your personal improvement: Work on making Foul Shots, Lay ups and shots you might expect to get from your position on the court. Practice does not make Perfect, Perfect Practice makes Perfect. Focus on good fundamentals. Ball handlers, work on dribbling with each hand and making fundamentally sound passes.
Remember: The best way to improve the team is to improve your own play.
I will plan to post additional thoughts at a later time.

Uniform Collection Day!
Hi Girls,
Please make sure all your teammates know this. I will be at school on Friday Morning in the school library at 8:30 am to collect all the uniforms and all the T-shirt money that is due. You will be allowed to be tardy a few minutes Teresa is taking care of that.
Please make sure that you have your uniforms washed and folded neatly (in a WalMart bag is a good way to carry them) and bring a check(if you still owe) made out to Halifax Academy and stubbed T-Shirt for $12.50 for the team T-Shirts still due. I would like to take care of all this type stuff on Friday. Thanks in advance.
BTW, If you girls would like a T-shirt that says you are the 2011 EPIC Champions we can probably get one made. Think About the Color you want. If you want a T-shirt you might want a different color than the green one you already have, but that is your call, it COULD be players can order different colors as long as there are not too many of them, Green, White, Navy, Pink. (on this I will have to check it out) We will talk about it Friday Morning in the Library. All JV Girls Team members and Ryanne Please attend.
I was thinking 2011 JV Girls EPIC Champions on the front and your name and number on the back. If you have a different idea print it up and bring it Friday.
Team leaders, please make the effort to let every girl on our team know to read this and bring your stuff on Friday so we can close this season out.
It was a Great Season Girls!
Now you can turn your head and look back to see what you have accomplished!

EPIC Tournament Champions 2011
Hi Ladies;
A Great win against a tough Rocky Mount JV Girls team 33 to 28 to claim the always tough 2A EPIC Tournament Championship at Parrott Academy bringing an end to a Dream Season. I am very proud of all of you. Your poise under pressure all year has been wonderful.
It has been a very good learning experience for this team. One that should serve you all well in the future. We went from being the hunter to being the hunted this year. It makes you appreciate what great teams like UNC and Duke face every night when all the other teams put in extra time and share stradegy's in an effort to knock you off the top spot. It is the nature of the game. Learn to welcome the challenge. Competing is fun.
The Best news is our team had what it took to take everyone's best shot and keep on winning.
Scoring by Qtrs: 1st: 9 to 11, 2nd: 6 to 4, 3rd: 9 to 6, 4th: 9 to 7 Final Score 33 to 28
H.A. Scoring: Kelly 10 pts, Jamie 9 pts, MeganK 6 points, Emily 3 pts,Jordan 3 pts, Lindsey 2 pts.
Making the All Tournament Team as selected by the tournament committee were:
Tournament MVP: Jamie
All Tournament team: Kelly, Lindsey and Emily along with #23 and #25 from RMA.
RMA Scoring: #25 C. Boddie 9 pts, #23 A.C. Roberson 9 pts, #5 C. Coats 6 pts, #20 S. Dunn 2 pts,
#12 A. Jackson 2 pts.
FG%: Team 14/35 40%**: Individual: Kelly 5/8***, Jamie 3/5***, Em 1/2**, Jordan 1/2(3pt)**,
MeganK 3/8*, Lindsey 1/8, Mer 0/1, Alex 0/2.
FT%: Team 4/12 33.3%; Individuals: Jamie 3/4****, Em 1/4, Lindsey 0/1, Kelly 0/3.
RMA FT%: 7/17 41.2%: #25 Boddie 3/6, #5 Coats 2/5, #12 Jackson 2/6.
Rebounds: Team 5off/16def: Kelly 3/5****, Jamie 1/4***, Em, 1/4***, Mer 1/2**, MeganK 0/1*.
Assists: Team 7; Individuals: Lindsey 3***, Jamie 2**, Alex 1*, MeganK 1*.
Steals: Team 7: Individuals: MeganK 3****, Lindsey 2***, Jamie 2***.
Blocks: Team 5****; Jamie 2****, Em 1**, Kelly 1**, Lindsey 1**.
Layups: Team 8/18 44.4%; Individual: Kelly 5/8****, Em 1/2***, Jamie 1/2***, Lindsey 1/5, Mer 0/1,
MeganK 0/1.
T/O's: Team 9: Individual: Lindsey 3, Jamie 2, Alex 1, MeganK 1. This was a good number. We did not have very many unforced turnovers and you expect the girls that handle the ball 80% of the time to have a few. Good Work!
Heart, Heart and Heart! Teams that play with great skill can be good teams but it takes a team that plays with Great Heart and Great Skill to be a Great Team and to be a Champion. As we talk about so much at practice if the other teams gets all the 50/50 loose balls and all the 50/50 rebounds bouncing around in the air you are probably going to get beat and it is usually going to be by a bunch.
I thought the RMA team played better than I had seen them. Their Coach said he was proud of how they played. We had to have the Heart, Focus and Determination to meet that. As I told you in the locker room I was not going to sit there in a zone and let the game be a toss up knowing we could pressure them and win by 7 or 8 points. The Point Zone served its purpose to make sure we had gas in the tank in the second half and not be in foul trouble at the end of the game. If they had been cold from outside (they only had 2 outside shooters #5 and #23) we could have stayed in it longer but they were hot and we did not get out on their shooters quite fast enough in the zone early. They only scored 4 2pt FG's after we went to 24Lockdown with about 4 min to go in the 2nd qtr. Before that in 8 minutes or so they had 3 three's and 2 two's and 5 foul shot attempts.
Girls, we set as a goal 3 Championship Celebrations for this season. Along the way we had so many other wonderful victories that were part of making this a Dream Season. It takes focus, believing in what you are doing and executing what you work on. When you let your thoughts stray very far from your principles it usually costs you. Sometimes it only makes the game closer than it should be. Sometimes it costs you the game. This team had the ability to dig deep and focus on what it was good at the great majority of the time both on offense and defense. Your Reward is all these Championship Trophy's.
Congratulations 2010 Christmas Tournament Champions, 2011 EPIC Regular Season Champions,
2011 EPIC Tournament Champions. It was a dream season and every player on this team should be proud of what this team accomplished.
You Girls have been a wonderful group to coach and be around. I enjoyed everyday of it.
Remember to Enjoy what you have accomplished and let's never forget:
There is no Glory in Defense just Championships. It is not about who we are playing, winning or losing it is about Perfect Execution. The man on top of the mountain did not fall there. You can measure the speed of a race horse with a watch but it takes a race to measure its heart. Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together.
It has been a great season, I was told that the odds against us were stacked too high with Halifax Ac. being one of the smallest 2A schools playing against schools that should be in 3A in our conference. You proved that with focus and attention to detail and playing with talent and heart that was not so. Let's keep it up.
Finally a huge thank you to our fans. They have been great all year. Thursday and Saturday we had a great crowd supporting us. You girls captured the imagination of our Halifax Academy family by playing hard and playing with great skill. It was great to not only have the vocal and moral support of our parents but also the students and other members of our H.A. family that traveled so far to support us yesterdayt. Whenever you get a chance make sure they know how much you and your coach appreciated it. They were truly like having an extra player on our team.
I will post additional information from this season at a later date such a final stats etc. so check back.
***Would you girls that still owe for your Team T-Shirts please get a check for $12.50 to Teresa so we can close our account.*** Also please wash your uniforms and turn them in. If necessary I will set up a day to be at school to collect them. I will talk to our AD and Mr. Wiggs on what can be worked out.

Tournament Victory vs. St. Davids
Hi Girls;
A great win today over a very good St. Davids team 31 to 28 to send the JV Lady Vikings to Parrott Academy to play RMA for the EPIC Tournament Championship at 12:00 noon Saturday. RMA defeated APA last night 23 to 20.
Scoring by Qtrs: 1st qtr: 8-9 2nd qtr: 11-8 3rd qtr: 8-3 4th qtr: 4-8 Final Score 31 to 28.
H.A. Scoring: Jamie 10, Emily 8, Mer 7, Alex 2, Lindsey 2, Kelly 2.

FT%: Team 3/13; 23.1%: Individual: Mer 1/2**, Jamie 2/7, Lindsey 0/2, Kelly 0/2.
FT% St. Davids: 4/10 40%: #11 2/2, #31 1/2, #15 1/6.

Turnovers: Team 17; Individual: Jamie 7, Mer 4, Lindsey 3, Emily 1, Alex 1, Kelly 1.
Final Thoughts: We made it more difficult than it should have been by not making foul shots late and not doing a very good job guarding #15 early. #15 had 11 points in the 1st 7 min of the game. #31 scored 6 pts in the second quarter. Once we got our defense adjusted #15 did not score again until she made 4 pts late in the game and #31 only scored 1 point in the 3rd qtr. #11 scored all her 4 points in the 4th.
It was a great effort and I was extremely proud of all of you girls for your effort and focus on what we had to do defensively. Even though we worked on being prepared for #31 and #15 we had to adjust to them using #31 as a passer out of the High Post. Once we denied her the ball at that spot it caused their offense to have trouble getting started and they seemed to have no alternative plan. #31 and #15 are both very good players. That said we have some very good players on our side of court.
We set as a Team Goal at the beginning of the year a Goal to win 3 Championships: Defend the Christmas Tournament Championship, Win the EPIC Regular Season home and home championship and Win the Conference Tournament Championship. We have one goal burning brightly left in front of us. Lets give it our total focus and total effort.
We will practice Friday at the regular time and the team will assemble at Parrott Academy at 11:00am for the 12:00 noon tip off of the JV Girls Championship Game.
By the Way: The win today makes our Team record now 20 and 2 for the season. Let's finish strong, 21 and 2 sounds Great to me!
Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together. Be Proud of Who You Are and What You do!
Thank you Girls and Parents for the wonderful team picture. It will always remind me of how happy we all felt after that great comeback win for the conference championship. Also thanks for my gift certificate to Sharky's I am really looking forward to going there to eat and I really appreciate such a nice gift. Also, it was a wonderful meal. Thanks to all the parents that made it possible and Thanks for all you do.
Girls you all need to give your parents a hug and a kiss and tell them how much you love them for all they do for you and for our team. They are not only our biggest fans, without them getting us where we need to go we would not go far. It takes a huge committment from players and parents alike to have a Great Season. Let's bring them home another Trophy for their efforts.
Last but not least: Didn't we have a great crowd for our game today. They made a difference.

Final EPIC JV Girls Standings and Tournament
Hi Girls,
***Picture Day Monday, bring your uniforms***
***We need to get the money together for our team T-Shirts, the bill came in***
***Please make the check out to Halifax Academy and stub it T.Shirt etc.****
The Final EPIC Conference standings are out. It turned out a little different than I thought. Rocky Mount finished in 3rd place and so therefore we will host St. Davids on Thursday assuming they beat CCS a third time Tuesday.
Halifax Academy 9-1
Parrott Academy 8-2
Rocky Mount Ac. 6-4
St. Davids 5-5
Cary Christian 2-8
Kerr Vance 0-10
We will play the winner of 4 vs 5 on Thursday. APA will play the winner of 3 vs. 6 on Thursday.
I am working on the gameplan for St. Davids. I have some thoughts on their team and skills. We will be fine.
See you Monday at 3:15 or so. We will shoot foul shots and take pictures. Bring your uniforms. Look pretty.
The Varsity Girls will travel to RMA Tuesday. The JV Boys will travel to KVA Tuesday. The Varsity Boys will travel to St. Davids Tuesday. We will practice Tuesday and Wednesday to be ready for our game on Thursday.
I think we are going to have a team dinner after the game Thursday. We might practice a little longer on Tuesday since we will be the only team at school. Extra time to work on individual skills and shots.
Let's get prepared to play our best week of basketball ever!
