[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

“Winning isn’t the point.
Wanting to win is the point.
Not giving up is the point. Never letting up is the point.
Never being satisfied with what you’ve done is the point.
The game is never over.
The secret of the game is in doing your best.
To persist & endure.”-Pat Summitt

PARENTS: When you blame other things (officials, coaches, conditions, circumstances, teammates) for the situation your son or daughter is in, then you're essentially teaching your child how to be an excuse maker. Set the standard. Be the standard.

@CoachGSnodgrass @Coach_Kern Wow very cool! Congrats!

“These 3 rules have never let me down:
1. Do what is right
2. Do everything to the best of your ability.
3. Show people you care.” – Lou Holtz https://t.co/txZXu6bByj

The weight room does a lot more than just build your body. It builds strong character & mental toughness. It strengthens weaknesses & reveals assertiveness. It shows who has drive & who fakes it. Through grit, it reveals who’ll quit & who won’t. Ultimately, it creates leaders!

[Glen Snodgrass @CoachGSnodgrass]

“Talent is important. But the single most important ingredient after you get the talent is internal #LEADERSHIP. It’s not the coaches as much as one single person or people on the team who set higher standards than the team would normally set for itself.” -Mike Krzyzewski

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Weight room myths:
Messes up your shot
Makes you big/bulky
Makes you slow
Makes you less flexible

Weight room truths:
Makes you stronger
Decreases chance for injuries
Increases stamina
Makes you more confident/mentally tough

No more excuses! Get in the weight room & get better!

[The Coaches' Journal @TheCoachJournal]

Dear Players,

Every time you skip a workout.
Every time you take a shortcut.
Every time you make an excuse.
Every time you blame a teammate.
Every time you bring a bad attitude.
Every time you waste an opportunity.
You make it easier to beat you.

Sincerely,
Your Competition

[Jim Hixson @HixsonJim]

@CoachGSnodgrass @D_snodgrass34 @Leytonsnodgras8 He would be very proud of all of you. Really cool what you all have accomplished!
