Don't jump the gun, don't scratch, don't knock the bar off.
Run hard, turn left, if something's in the way, hurdle it and get to running again.

A certain very good girls basketball town in the vicinity has ridiculous good girls track numbers as well.

One of the keys to their success which a lot of town communities won't figure out because they are weak and don't want to work that hard. Yeah I remember being at the San Angelo relays winning my division and the girls from above mentioned school were winning theirs while the girls basketball team was in Austin winning another of their 17 state basket ball titles as well as 8 in xc and 4 in girls track

Many communities say they want to work but You tell them what ya wanna do and they say Well coach we wanna win BUT we really don't Know about doing off season every day And running quarters every day. Even sub varsity on game day and don't bb vb bb SB all have different off seasons? And you don't run much in bb vb or SB shouldn't those kids be doing hitting shooting spiking drills in off season? Well then I'm probably not the guy for this job Ty I enjoyed the interview. Best of luck

We have the same problem here. The kids have the ability to compete and win, but they want to put in the work when its convenient for them. They all want to hoist the gold ball in football and basketball and stand on that podium in track but its a problem when you ask them to put that extra work to get that position.

A lot of it stems from the fact that consequences for actions were taken away.

Back in my day we had to walk up hill in the snow both ways to school. Yadayadayada. These kids have things just as rough as we had it, just in different ways. The fact that as many of them can function that do is a small miracle in itself. These kids will have to know more than any generation before them, period. And while we are fighting the good fight, we just haven't had the ability to catch up to these changes to help them like we got when we were their age.

The problem with these kids is that they suffer from that "something for nothing" disease. They want it all but don't want to put in the work for it. Sadly the education system that we work in now doesn't hold kids accountable, like if kids don't do work give them chance after chance after chance to do it and still don't give them a zero.
