The Close Ones Hurt!

A little reflection on last nights close one...

We played hard, we stayed true to ourselves, we respected the game and we were right there in the end. It always hurts the lose the close ones. I have a pit in my stomach that will remain until we get back in the gym on Thursday. Could I have called timeouts at a better time? Could I have made some different substitutions? Could I have drawn up a better play to get us hoops in the 4th quarter? Probably yes to all of those things!

Here is what I do know...the girls have 110% the whole way through, they played with passion and heart, didn't let mistakes and a tough shooting night reflect on how hard they were going to play. We can be proud of those kids for an effort like that win or lose. If we can bottle that heart for each and every game we will look back on this season with an overwhelming sense of pride.

Can't wait to get back at it Thursday, Merry Christmas to all.

Coach: Saw your game vs. BC last night and as a basketball lover and former coach enjoyed a great team in every aspect of the game. Court demeanor, intensity, team chemistry and several very talented players. Have a great rest of the season.
