Districts

This past weekend was the first round of the state tournament for the U-15 boys team that I coach - the Lafayette Thunder. After 4 games we finished first place in the West and are headed into the State quarter finals next Saturday. I was proud of the guys. After being guaranteed a qualification to the next round, we played one more game and it was the best of the weekend. That kind of focus is a great sign. Wish us luck this upcoming round - the competition coming out of the East is tough.

Thanks...we had our first practice post victory and the atttude was pretty positive. So far so good. These guys can get a little cocky but right now, they seem to be grounded.

Has their coach asked for a contract extension based on the recent success?

This coach does this gig for free so I have a feeling that unless I get ejected a few times, that the parents will ask me back :-)
