blessed coaching enjoyable girls greatest life team together worked year
This being my first year, I was blessed to have a team like this. They are the greatest girls in the world. They worked together and made life pleasurable for me in my first year coaching here. In my 27 years of coaching, this was my most enjoyable year.
definitely girls helped played playing twice
I think it definitely helped that we had played them twice before. Our girls were very comfortable playing them.
advantage felt foul good guards job line pressure quicker smaller spread three
I think we did a good job on the foul line and spread it out enough. We started Megan (along with other 'smalls,' Nunez and Vega) to see if we could get quickness. We felt like if we could pressure their guards with three smaller players, we'd be quicker and the advantage would be ours.
good improve knew road slow turn year
We started out slow this year (1-3) but we knew down the road that we could improve and turn it around. It's been a good year for us.
coaching defense gym offense offensive practice sets worked
We've got to go back to the gym right away (today). We didn't practice our offensive sets enough. That was a coaching error. We worked more on our defense than our offense and it showed.
