Finish Strong!

Hey Guys, 

You may not have realized it, but this is our last month together, as Regional Championships will end our tournament season on 4/28. We should cherish our remaining practices, reflect on the bonds we have forged in the heat of competition, and honor the commitments we have made to each other as teammates.
 
As the end of the season approaches there will be a temptation to let up, or become distracted by other interests,... but as a team we have the capacity to Finish Strong.  
 
That means we play with as much enthusiasm as we did at the start of the season. It means we make the extra effort to make good things happen on the court, we go for every ball, we continue to strive for excellence… It means continue to encourage each other to be our best!

In the past we have had some very nice baskets which have generated a good amount of money to help in paying for the teams going to Nationals. Each team is requested to donate a gift basket. Example of previous baskets donated are: Beach theme, BBQ theme, Lottery, Movie, Theater tickets, Sporting event tickets, Golf outings, etc… Please bring your team basket to the banquet.

14 Blue Notes: Regionals @ PowerZone

Jet Reflects...

While at regionals, we began the tournament strong with a win. During the next two games the energy level went down and we lost those following games. Although we didn't place, I think we had an amazing season.

Quake Reflects...

Team 14 Blue acted like a true team during our last tournament. We powered through the first couple rounds with determination and spirit. We struggled during the semi-finals but won because of our motivation. The finals were a hard loss but it didn't crush us because we are looking forward to the next (and sadly our last) tournament @ Regional Championships.

Flame Reflects...

In our last tournament, we were able to push each other to work together as a family to go as far as we did. We enjoyed hosting it at downstate since it's our home court. Towards the end, we all struggled and were intimidated by the other team even though we had enough skills to win the whole thing. We still finished strong with second place! We all can't wait for our last tournament to play our hearts out!
