(Successful teams are always forced to play up to be challenged by bigger stronger and old kids). Finishing the year with a record may seem a bit below our standard, but it s not all about the wins/loses. It s really all about making all the kids better which definitely occurred on this group of girls. They learned to battle thru adversity, adjust to new roles for many of them, and got to see what real travel basketball is all about. Look for all these girls to excel on next year s school teams and many to return to the program again next year as they want to continue to get better
