The defending Division IV State Champions continue their undefeated encore season with a convincing win over last year's D3 State Runners-Up. Bellevue shined at the "Tourney Tune Up" held at Margaretta High School, handling Avon Lake 60-44 with their freshman star stealing the show.

Ava Jakubcin-Theis earned Player of the Game honors by scoring 19 points and guarding the Shoregal's leading scorer, and holding her in check. The stud frosh has provided a huge lift to a roster with aspirations of defending their title, as they improve to 16-0 with the program's 32nd consecutive victory.

The reason to deliberately do hard things is so that when non-self-elected challenges arrive (& they will), you can tell yourself: “I don’t know how this is all going to turn out, but I am certain I can do hard things.” Don’t self injure. But doing hard things is always worthwhile.

If you show up early, if you stay late, if you work hard, if you know the signs, if you're a great teammate, you're going to get a chance.

If you learn to eat better, sleep better, study better, manage your time better, you're going to play better.

https://t.co/zceK0tJAGj has listed the #Raidergang as a dark horse to win the Terre Haute Regional.👀

"This regional is wide open, and the Raiders' combination of strong hitting in the top half of the lineup and a star ace in Sebastian Gongora, it could be a different mid-major advancing past this regional."

The greatest lesson I ever learned about dealing with pressure…

Came from a, Landscaper???

One of my best friends, college teammate and roommate once sent our team a message before we played one of the biggest series of the season

The message still sticks with me today:

“Any time you feel pressure, think about the pressure the guy sitting in a foxhole in the Middle East feels. Not knowing if he’s going to make it home, thousands of miles away from everything he’s fighting for.”

Powerful

He now runs a very successful landscaping company, but has seen firsthand what pressure actually looks like in real life

Not something made up when you’re playing a game

Pressure isn’t hitting a home run down one in the ninth

It’s making sure you can still work to support your family and put food on the table

Or a roof over your head

But Pressure means you care.

Pressure means it MEANS something to you

It doesn’t matter how minuscule the task or purpose.

But it usually ties back to something bigger than whatever is happening in that moment:

-you’re nervous during the big at bat because if you fail the team will lose, you’ll think about it for days/weeks/years, your coaches will lose faith in you, and your parents will be disappointed

-youre nervous to talk to the beautiful girl because you’ve gotten rejected in the past and your group of friends clowned you for it and made it personal

-you want your business to be successful because everyone told you in high school that you would be a failure and not amount to anything.

THAT is why you feel that pressure.

But how bad are those things in retrospect?

What if the scenario flips?

Really, your personal problems pale in comparison to the person mining for cobalt to put in the phone that you’re reading THIS TWEET on.

They’re making 20 cents a day to feed their entire family.

You just couldn’t get a hit today playing a GAME

Any high leverage situation is a blessing for you to showcase your skillset

Not a chore

So enjoy the moment

Smile and laugh in those pressure situations

Apollo Ohno, one of the greatest speedskaters in Olympic History, would YAWN before big races

Showcasing his relaxed approach to big moments

It’s just another day at the office

Not life or death

Relish the moment. Cherish it.

Who knows

Things just might work out.

And then you party

Hope you enjoyed this! If you did, throw this a Retweet and make sure you follow me!
