We only have a few weeks left in the classroom and we need to make sure
they are great weeks. We had |
|
a good 2nd Tri-mester as we had 33 players from the football program
make it on the honor roll- this is up 4 kids from last |
|
year at this time. We are hoping to break that number for the current
tri-mester. We have set three goals for our varsity team this |
|
year in the classroom: Nobody Ineligible, Average GPA of entire team at
a 3.0 and to earn academic all state honors. |
|
|
We are doing a good job up to this point but need to end strong to earn
all 3 goals. |
|
|
|
|
|
As for our off-season, its been a very committed one. Our numbers have
been up from last year and as of right |
|
now, this will be the strongest varsity team we will be fielding in 3
years. A few weeks back we held our weight room testing |
|
and the players established 102 new personal records- out of a possible
113! |
|
|
|
|
|
As of June 11th, our summer program will be started. Attached is a
"commitment sheet" we are asking players |
|
to sign if we can count on them to attend a minimum of 65% of the summer
workouts. This equates to about 2.5% of their total |
|
summer hours. PLEASE ONLY SIGN THIS IF THE COACHING STAFF AND TEAMMATES
CAN COUNT ON YOU!! |
