Back to page topI haven't had the opportunity to see these kids play, but are they really that bad, or is the competition that good? It seems to me that our athletic director, coaching staff, the players and their parents need to get together and see what could be done to improve their game. I believe that most of these kids have been playing basketball since first grade, and it would seem to me that their record should be better than this!! Maybe, just maybe a coaching change is needed.

Back to page topCan a program change its fortunes? Apparently so. Ten months ago, the Tigers had five wins in 22 outings. JaneDoe and other basketball "experts" had the answer: "Maybe, just maybe a coaching change is needed." Today, the team has a perfect 6-0 record. I guess the "experts" were wrong. Congratulations to the basketball team and its coach on the great start and best of luck during the remainder of the 2009-10 season.
