Pete Christy Coach Connell is one of the best there is. Congrats and good luck tomorrow Sands. Rooting for you!

Pete Christy Ben is old school. Loved watching his kids play. My favorite team in the tournament! Good job Sands!

FYI. Getting my knee scoped today. Going to clean up some torn cartilage. Dr Taunton, out of texas orthopedics, is doing the job. The Dr is trying to give me a few more years before knee replacement. Old age is not for the weak minded! Ugh

Out of surgery. All went well. Thank you for your prayers!

My coaching attire has always been like I was about to tee it up in a golf tournament. I refused to dress like I was going to a funeral! And now I see D1 and Pro coaches dressing like I always have, and now it’s ok it seems. And they call me old school. Lol
