A couple of days ago, the Lady Apaches got their first victory of the season. It was game that quite honestly was never going to be in doubt as we far out classed our opponent. We literally could have scored as many points as we wanted. But I made it clear from the beginning that we were going to use this game to learn how to be patient and how to execute our half court offenses (one of the major weaknesses we have had). It would not help us learn anything if all we did was fastbreak to layups.
I am happy to report that we did an incredible job running our halfcourt offenses. I know that really anything would have worked. However, the girls actually ran the plays and we scored all our points coming in the flow of running one of our offenses. I was very pleased with our discipline.
We followed that victory with perhaps the best practice we had all year. The girls worked hard and were attentative. We ran the break well in our transition drills and executed well in our halfcourt game. Now we will see if that carries over to Friday night's home game against a team the girls barely beat last year.
