Coaching Wolfpack

Our high school team had our first tournament of the season last weekend and Derrick and I couldn't be prouder of our guys. This year looks a lot different than last year. We had tryouts, we made cuts, and we're running a lot tighter lines.

Coaching is exhausting! Derrick and I think it's just as exhausting as playing in a tournament. Maybe not physically...although we both woke up sore from being on our feet all weekend...but mentally you have to be ON the whole time. We care so much about these kids and we love being out there with them so we wouldn't have it any other way. They are all so NICE and hilarious. Derrick and I are constantly talking about them and their individuality. We feel lucky to get to coach them.

We came into the tournament as the 11th seed overall. On Saturday, we had two losses at the beginning of the day and then ended up ending the day with two wins which sent us into the championship bracket.

After a couple close losses on Sunday we still finished the tournament in 8th which means we broke seed by 3 places! We've got at least three more tournaments this year and we're practicing three days a week. I can't wait to see how the rest of the season goes for these guys!
