“Some people want it to
happen, some wish it would happen, others make
it happen” - Michael Jordan
Recap – This
quote epitomizes the heart, hustle and determination this team has displayed
throughout the regular season. The guts and
will to win we showed this past Friday have taken us to our first team goal - Division 2 South Champions - but we are not finished yet.
Our second season starts tomorrow.
Going into the post-season, we need to maintain this focus and MAKE IT HAPPEN!
Thanks to the Heatherton and Cunnie families for the snacks and drinks on the bus ride home this
week, the McGreen and Sabetti families for the pasta parties
and all families who have supported, and continue to support the team through
the season!
This Week’s Plans – Playoffs
start this week. The weather is looking more
like April than May with showers expected Monday through Thursday so we may
have to practice indoors on some days.
Indoor practice times will be announced if needed. Although the official seedings have not been
posted, we should be a 2 seed and have home
field advantage throughout the playoffs.

Thursday May 24 at NHS. In
preparation for playoffs, varsity-only practices be held through the end of the
season. I will be contacting all players
