COCALICO CONCLUSION
Both @ZephyrAthletics and @SolehiSpartans boys volleyball had their seasons end in the second round of the PIAA tournament yesterday at Cocalico HS. Whitehall was able to win one set.
Playing in Philly is like playing a postseason game everywhere else…even when it's just a regular-season game.
That’s how fun it is! @Phillies#mlbontbs
The Cement Belt rivalry match had a lot at stake as the Whitehall Zephyrs rolled into Northampton for an EPC volleyball clash with the K-Kids on Wednesday. Get the story from our @VentingDaily. 🏐
Students need to learn how to sit, think, and write for extended periods.
No phones. No computer.
Just their thoughts, the struggle to organize them, and the clarity that comes from deep focus.
Admin: Please enforce our phone policy.
Me: Please put your phone away
S: Eat shit
Me: Please tell your child to keep the phone away during class.
P: They won't listen to me, give them a detention.
Admin: No detention. Have you tried building a relationship with them?
On day 1 of my high school history class, our professor got up and said
You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago people your age were married, planted crops, had children, and built a cabin by winter. You can do your homework. The bar set for you historically is embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies. You have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe, air-conditioned room. You have no excuses.

Championship bracket quarter finals
The Zephs jumped out to a set one 15-11 win over York Suburban, but fall in extras in set 2 and 3 17-15.
The only loses on the day were to the #1 and #2 teams in AA.
Whitehall finished T5 out of 40 teams.

My god, please watch this. Tom Izzo is 100% correct. Tough coaching, accountability, strong leaders put out into life. We have to stop being so soft as a society
Tom Izzo is asked by @outkick’s @RealDanZak about media ripping him for being too tough on players and Charles Barkley’s defense of him, gives phenomenal answer on accountability. Watch this:
Public schools: “But how will we enforce this cell phone ban?!”
Private schools: “We saw you using your phone in hallway. We will give you your phone back next month.”
If you’re a teacher and your first thought walking into school is “what is going to happen today” or “I just have to get through today”—instead of what you’ll be teaching—something isn’t right in your school culture. And you deserve better.
