Viking Coach

Time has now become short. “Game Day” is Friday. I have never really felt ready for the 1st game of the year. . .or the 2nd, 3rd, 4th. . . It is amazing how much you need to cover in such a short time. So far we have put in:
2 Zone Offenses (Bison and Siuox)
2 Man Offenses (Dragon and Go-4)
1 Special set for “Go-4”
3 Special sets for “Dragon”
5 Under-basket inbound plays (Orange, Black, L, Fist, Line)
2 Side inbound plays (X & 33)
Full Court Press Break
Full Court Press Defense
4 Half court defenses

Add to that all the “reads” that each player must come to understand and it gets to be a lot to think about. This week will be all about reviewing and trying to polish what we have already introduced so that we can, hopefully, see some “shine” at Lake Park – Audubon on Friday night.

The attitude and effort from the girls has been FANTASTIC! The players are working hard towards excellence and they have been very intense. They have showed the "determination" that gets a person from where they are right now as a player to the place they want to be. I'm proud and I am enjoying the journey.
