Sometimes toughness looks like playing for 40 minutes, but sometimes toughness looks like cheering your teammates on from the bench. Choose toughness, no matter what your circumstances look like.

You’ll remember your teammate who made the game winning shot just as much as you’ll remember your teammate who was tough as nails and who did all the little things for the team to succeed. Every role is important and every person who perfects their role will create a legacy.

“My parents taught me a long time ago that you win in life with people, and that's important, because if you hang with winners, you stand a great chance of being a winner” - Pat Summitt

“90% of the work done in this country is by people who don't feel well. Don't let how you feel interfere with what you have to do" - Pat Summit

The only thing more effective than discipline is love. Discipline may change your behavior for a little while, but fall in love, and you’ll accomplish more than you ever thought possible. When you love something, you sacrifice & commit. Focus on falling in love with the game.

Shoals Christian head coach Emma Wallen Balentine during her team's game at Lexington on Monday. As a player, Emma was part of five consecutive state championships at Lauderdale County High School and holds the state record for most 3-point baskets in a girls Final Four game (9).

It doesn’t take talent to show up. It doesn’t take talent to listen. It doesn’t take talent to work hard. It doesn’t take talent to learn. It doesn’t take talent to have a good attitude. It takes choices. Choices matter more than talent.

It’s not about winning. It’s about never giving up. It’s about not backing down. It’s about getting back up every time you fall. Fight for your dreams.

I don’t know who needs to hear this…. But missing practice is NOT okay (unless emergency). Whether it’s school ball or AAU. You are either committed or not… you either want to get better or don’t
