37 Days Until Basketball Practice Begins

Not that I am counting, but there are 37 days left until basketball practice officially begins.  The girls at Gonzales High School have been working out during the athletic period for the past few weeks and I think we probably have some good players that can turn this program back around.  Now the question is how bad do they want it?  Will they be satisfied with mediocrity or are they really wanting to shoot for the stars and see just how deep into the playoffs we might be able to go.  Only time will tell.

Its now time to start seeing them in more basketball related activities while on the court.  Today we worked on some shooting drills.  Tomorrow will be a weight and flexibility training day.  Then it might be time soon to see how well they pick up the defense.   I, for one, am ready to start teaching the ins and outs of the offenses and defenses we will be running.  I just don't want to leave behind those in volleyball and I also know that some of what I teach will be beyond some of the more inexperienced players.  But I know I have to start putting it in.  I think that will begin on Thursday
