Senior Donovan Bizzle scored 24 points last night to lead the Atherton boys basketball team to a 67-65 victory over Seneca. Ravens (12-11) have an eight-game winning streak entering Tuesday's game at Brown.
Isn’t it funny how kids find every reason in the book to miss practice or attempt to miss practice, but none of these reasons ever come up on game day? Asking for a friend.
PLAYERS: When you become a "whatever the team needs" type player then you become a great teammate. This also makes your team's culture stronger. Great teams have great teammates.
PLAYERS: Nobody is entitled to playing time. It's earned during your training and practice sessions. Those sessions start now. Find ways to be valuable every day.
Coaches have favorites.
A coach's favorite player works hard, has a positive attitude, puts in extra effort, is coachable,& team-oriented. These players aren't necessarily the most talented, but they do consistently demonstrate the qualities that contribute to the team's success.
“When you know someone’s story and you understand the why if what they do, it allows you to empathize. They are high character guys, really good people. That’s what allows them to care. When we were losing, we saw guys encouraging each other and lifting each other up”@CoachJTang
Here is the Edmonson/Grayson confrontation
A fan tries to attack the Edmonson Coach…then the Police officer intervenes and then others get involved and get ejected
Quite a scene

Pretty big upset last night in the 27th District boys tournament as Atherton knocked off top-seeded Seneca 60-56. @DeadStock_V reported Seneca did not have top scorer Quel'Ron House. Atherton gets Trinity in Wednesday's 7 p.m. district final.
