2- Girls being Prepared as we were for their press, Playing Hard every possesion, Playing Smart, Playing Together as a team and playing with Heart will take us far. That is what we did tonight and that has become our calling card.

3- The Fayetteville A.D. and Varsity Boys Coach said that he is not sure he has ever seen a JV Girls team that plays any harder. That is what I hear with everyone that is seeing you play. Be proud of it. I don't think it has been the cornerstone of the UNC Basketball program for the last 50 years for no good reason. We can always control the fact that we Play Hard. I would love for it to become the cornerstone of our JV team.

4- We travel Friday to Rocky Mount Academy for our first conference game. We lost to them 3 times last year, the last two times by 1 point.

5- Wear Green Uniforms and for this game you may dress as you like, just look nice.

6- Be at the Rocky Mount Academy Gym at 2:15 if you need to dress at the gym or 2:30 if you come with your uniform on.

7- Travel safe and come ready to play. This is an important game and we need to be ready

Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together and lets play Good.
