Keys to the season: Key to this season for us is to play as TEAM. All off-season and the beginning of this season we have preached the importance of every man doing his job 100 percent of the time and trusting his teammates are doing the same. If we can do this I believe this will give this very talented group of players the opportunity to succeed and win together.

Things your team was doing during the COVID-19 pause of winter sports: The players have handled the COVID situation phenomenal! They understand the importance of following protocol and why it is so important. While off we had a zoom call to keep the team connected as well as a text thread to discuss basketball. The key to moving forward is to continue to follow the necessary protocol and keep conditioned in a long break as this. Also keep the kids focused on basketball and keep the outside distractions out. That being said we are excited to be back in the gym and look forward to having a season!
