"There's a difference between playing & competing. You don't prepare yourself to be the best at the beginning. You prepare to be the best at the end. Everybody can play in the first 20 minutes;it's the last 5 minutes you have to be ready to compete. That's when banners get hung."

WANT TO BE A TEAM LEADER? ✅ be the standard in practices ✅ be the standard in the weight room ✅ be the standard in the classroom ✅ be the standard in your social life ✅ be the standard in competition #CultureWins

"Under pressure, you don't rise to the occasion. You sink to the level of your training. That's why we train so hard." ~ U.S. Navy SEALS

While 1 sleeps in another 1 is up early. While 1 complains another 1 trains. While 1 gives up another 1 fights on. WHICH 1 WILL YOU BE? WIN THE DAY!

"Just showing up guarantees defeat. You've got to show up prepared. Then you've got to execute, & not just when it's easy or convenient. When it gets tough, you've got to have the discipline and toughness to keep executing, keep persevering, & keep on fighting." Travis Daugherty

"If your habits don't line up with your dreams, then you need to either change your habits or change your dreams."-Drew Hanlen It's never going to be about what you want. It's always about what you are willing to work for. Everyone has wants-not everyone's willing to do the work.

You’ll never know how good you can be until you take risks and give your best effort. Have the courage to test your limits. Even if you fail to reach your goals, you can at least say you gave it your all.

Parents, if you really want your kid to succeed, allow their coach to do his or her job. Your role should mainly be about providing support. And if you are your child’s coach, make sure you are a parent first, coach second.

Talent isn’t enough Athleticism isn’t enough Mental toughness isn’t enough Technique isn’t enough Strategy isn’t enough To be the best, you must be well-rounded and have the whole package!

With a 5-0 W in the Quarters……Our First Ever State Placer! Semi Finals start at 5:30 PM.

PLAYERS: When coaches, teachers, or parents push you or hold you to high standards, it's normally because they want you to be better. They want you to reach your potential. They want you to achieve your goals. Be coachable and appreciate the ways they might be able to help you!!

It takes 1 player who • doesnt work hard • badmouths coaches in locker room • doesnt bring energy • pushes team rules • has bad body language • complains on the bench To completely ruin the entireteam culture + chemistry. Dont be that one player. Buy in and be Team First.

As a coach, the best feeling is seeing your players improve, succeed, and have fun. Work hard every day to make a positive impact on your players’ lives!
