At the end of the year, her coaches made remarks to me about her ability to be a gamer. When she scores eight to 10 points a game, they often won. Jess is a scorer.
At times, we played our best basketball of the year against them. Our kids came out of that game understanding we can compete with those teams.
Defense has always been our forte. Even with our good teams, our program's based on defense. We can control our effort on defense.
For her, it's just clicked.
I believe the Pinewood game carried over into the Salinas game.
I have no intentions of changing our non-league schedule. We want to be at another level when league rolls around. League should count for something.
I think there are too many average teams in the playoffs to begin with. But if we can't go .500 in league, we don't deserve to go to the playoffs.
It's back to the old style. We're going to have to grind out wins with our defense. We're just not going to score a lot of points.
It's pretty cut and dried.
It's taken a lot longer than I anticipated for them to buy into the system. But the kids are understanding their roles. The biggest thing is confidence.
My feeling is she was a little frustrated at times with her scoring. But Jess was still adjusting to the system and feeling her way around.
Our record won't strike fear into people. But some of our losses have been to some pretty good teams. We're the kind of team that most don't want to see.
The big thing is they have seniors and a good point guard. Those girls have been playing together for three years. They're an older team in our league.
We have some outside presence with them. Both have learned not to be afraid to shoot. It's a development thing.
We made a couple of rotation changes. But the big thing is we are a lot more aggressive offensively.
