We're playing the same tune
over and over; we were shorthanded again. With only a bench
of two, it is exceptionally difficult to play high school aged
players. While I will do little to take away from those who
were there to 'duke it out', it is still my opinion that we
could have put on just a little bit better show. We had no defensemen
and we were tired, but we really didn't play very smart. When
we get physically tired, we must be mentally stronger. We went
over and worked on ways to hold the scoring down, but didn't
do a good job executing. As I said in the locker room, "If
that was your best effort, I'll be happy." We have a big
game Saturday. I hope we have a few more players. Winning Saturday,
gives us a winning season which, in my mind, is quite an accomplishment
given everything we've gone through this season. Play Hard.
Every
contest is a new opportunity to test our courage and renew our
commitment. -- Unknown
