COACH COMMENTS ON TEAM/LEAGUE

We have a long way to go (to be competitive), but have kids that want to get there. Our weakness is our inexperience. Our two returners played a combined 5-6 minutes a game last year, so essentially our whole squad is new to varsity basketball. We will take some lumps as we grow, but I think our mentality is in the right area. We know we need to get better and we are doing what is ncessary to get there. It's not going to be easy, but we will be in a good position to fight for the fourth playoff spot.
