The 6th-grade girls' basketball team ended its fantastic season at an impressive 10-2 record. A common theme in basketball is height=good basketball players. However, the girls showed this season that this is not always true, as they didn’t have a lot of height but had all the heart and hustle that they could give. Coaches Kelley Litherland and Laura James emphasized the need for aggressive play throughout the season. Coach Litherland quoted, “Coach Laura James and I consistently encouraged aggressive play, reminding the girls that it’s their decision to work harder than the other team. It’s their decision to sprint up and down the floor on every possession, to go after every loose ball, and to fight for every rebound. We may not play every game well, but we can always make a conscious decision to play hard and give 150% of ourselves.” Their two losses came to Cedar Crest, and both games were hard-fought to the very end with the second game even going into overtime. The coaches made sure to spotlight the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship. The girls kept a positive and respectful attitude toward each other, the coaches, and the referees. This group of girls supported and encouraged each other to keep the mindset, “Be Great”. The girls made a point to always remember that how you practice is how you play. This group of girls has shown they are well-equipped to take on the new opportunities and challenges that junior high brings!
