Just the beginning

Wow. Just wow. We are OAC SEASON CHAMPS.

Just let that sink in for a second.

Ok, now that you've rapped your head around that lets talk about tonight!
It's tournament time! We got a by for the first round so we get to start directly at the semi-finals which take place tonight!! We are playing Cap at home! This is about to be crazy!!! If you are anywhere in the area I would advise getting in your car right now and coming to Berea! We are taking the first steps in making history tonight and having a lot of fun while doing it.

I am so proud of my team and all the hard work and passion they have put into the game this year. I have never been apart of a team so passionate and focused on our goals, yet still so fun loving and chill. I can not wait to see how far we go. And one things for sure: I wouldn't want to go anywhere without these amazing teammates and coaches. Thank you to all our fans and everyone who believes in us.

This is a chance that we had taken from us last year, this year we take nothing for granted. Every moment, every game, even every sound of that annoying buzzer, we cherish as a team. Tonight is just the beginning of a new adventure!

Hey everyone!!

I hope you all have stayed as warm as you can during this crazy winter. The weather currently has a fever because it's been warmer than 20 degrees the past couple of days!

Anyways, I am writing this knowing we have only one more regular season game. It is crazy thinking that this season is almost done. It feels like just last week we were on our last day of pre-season. This year has been like a roller coaster, with many highs and some lows. It has been exciting, exhausting, fun, sad, and hard. But most importantly, it has been memorable. This team has experienced more than any other team I have been on. We have had the most ridiculous fun and entertaining moments, but we have also had moments where we have had each others backs. That's what a team is all about, right? Picking each other up when they are down? This team does that on a daily basis. All of my teammates mean something to me, and I am thankful for every single one of them. I am blessed to be a part of the Yellow Jacket Family.

ONE MORE GAME. (regular season that is). Just one. I know we will give it our all for our seniors :)

Time flies when you're having fun

Hey everyone!

I'm writing this in our last week of regular season!  It seems like yesterday we were getting up at 530 AM to run some sprints.  Now we are in our final week of the season, 2 games...6 days...  This is such an awesome but bittersweet fact.  Awesome because we are in control of our own destiny during these last 2 games, bittersweet because I never want the season to end.  We are in control of our destiny because if we win the next two games we stay on top the league going into the OAC tournament! We just have to play our game and focus on all the things that we do well.  If we do that, then we will be first in the regular season! I cannot wait to see what this week brings us! I don't want to get too far ahead of myself though, so our next game (Wednesday) is where the focus lies.  We can think about winning the league, senior day, and all of that starting on Thursday!

On another note, I have an internship with Camp Cheerful in Strongsville.  A big part of the internship is coaching a school-aged wheelchair basketball team.  I must say that the 12 kids that I coach have impacted my life in countless of ways.  The fact that they take their disabilities, throw them aside, and find a way to be competitive and active astounds me. We just had a home game and I was so glad that people got to see them in action!

Well....today we have a late practice, so I am going to try and get a nap in before practice!
Bye for now!
