Great teamwork is the only way to reach our ultimate moments, and create breakthroughs that define our careers and fulfill our lives. — Pat Riley<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So we have reached the end of another regular season (at least for one out of the 4 teams I am coaching) and I have some time to take a look back at the season, <\/span>look at film, and think about playoffs (Yes! We made our goal of making the playoffs in our first season!).<\/p>\n

The U19 team is another one of those groups of guys that have known each other for a while and generally get along really well. I have had the pleasure of watching these guys grow for a season and some of them for 2 and I also have grown with them over this time.<\/p>\n

We lost players, got new players, said Hello to returning players, and faced times of challenge with injuries and sicknesses. We were a team of highs and lows, of great highs and of great lows, and we were the ultimate roller coaster ride at times.  A season full of unexpected events, unexpected technical fouls, expected and unexpected losses, and expected and unexpected wins.  It was a real learning season for me and the guys and we know there is still a lot more work to be done.<\/p>\n

The past couple months the team has been made more accountable for all the hard work we are demanding from each other and it is a proud moment for me every time to see the guys come together to get stuff done.  We  improved in 3 areas:  shooting, rebounding, and turnovers!  Everyone is doing the work individually and helping each other to get the work done.<\/p>\n

Truly a great team effort!  I feel really good about the improvements we have made, but I feel even more proud about the resiliency and spirit that the team has built.  It really goes to show how much we are able to achieve together.  The journey has been hard, fun, and well worth the while and I am sooo looking forward to continuing it.<\/p>\n
