Season End

What a season! We didn't have quite the finish we might have all hoped for, however winning the Region III Championship was certainly a worthy accomplishment. I refer to it as Region III still because I, and others who have been around awhile, liked it when it was Region III rather than the "Northern Lights Conference"

We had our end of the season awards banquet pretty darn close to the end of the season which made for some serious scampering to get ready in time, but it was a good time with a slide show, a really cool video, and of course the best part... Mr Thiede presenting the team with the new banner which i believe is supposed to be hanging in the gym now for all to enjoy. Thanks Mr Thiede!

Club season is now underway - but only just barely. I will be coaching a team for the first time in many years and am looking forward to it. We have picked a team and had one semi-official practice, although it was kind of impromptu and a couple of girls were not able to attend. J and I are looking forward to getting started for real soon.

Random things from the end of the high school season. Hm let me think... MM's hand is still in a cast following a bad set. Let this be a lesson to passers and setters everywhere. 1) we don't pass the ball to the setter by way of the ceiling! 2) setters - we don't set balls that come to us by way of the ceiling! we pass those. To my varsity team - Thank You! from all of us "coach types"

I'll see all you basketball players soon at a home game- until then Steve
