Hi Girls,

1- Had a good practice Wednesday. Had 10 girls there.

2- Will practice again Friday 10:00 to 12:00. I plan to stay at the gym until 12:30 if any of you girls want to work on your shooting or post moves or need help with either. Remember now is the time to develop this part of your game, not after you get on the varsity.

3- We have lots of preparation to go over to get ready for RRHS. Its a huge game for us and a great opportunity to show how good we can be. We need to be focused.

4- It was fun having Caroline back at practice and able to play a little.

5- Emphasis for Friday is making good decisions with the ball. Every pass has a risk reward to it. We need to make the easy passes or the ones that we have a good percentage of completing that will lead to an easy shot.

Thought: Great opportunity comes to those who make the most out of small ones. Roy Williams

A lot of the time our small opportunities are those that allow us to get better. As we continue to get better we can use what we have learned to accomplish great things. The fastest way to improve your team is to improve yourself.

If each player can improve their game a little it will improve this team a lot. Remember, what earn each player playing time is proving to me in practice I can trust you to play your position consistently well in practice. If you cannot then it just tells me you need more practice time.

Thought: "I will prepare my skills well so that when my opportunity comes I will be ready" John Wooden, UCLA.

I will always to the best of my ability: Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together.

One of the things I have been the most proud of with this team and last years team is they have always Play very Hard for me. That is the ultimate compliment to your coach and your teammates. Without this we would be no where.

Have a Great Thanksgiving and tell you Mom and Dad you love them for all they do for you. Let them know you appreciate them. Thats all the reward they ever need.

Coach May
