Overprotected kids become unprepared adults.

Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥

You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts.

Hard is the lesson.

Accountability isn’t punishment. It’s proof you believe in them enough to demand more.

In 2025, @uncwlax Chloe Humphrey became the first freshman to win the Tewaaraton Award as she led the Tar Heels to an undefeated season.

A generational talent, Humphrey’s bigger impact may be the way she has elevated the sport and changed the dynamic of women’s lacrosse.

@NCAALAX You got it WRONG! How you put Northwestern #1 is WRONG! UNC lost 1 game in OT. How many did Northwestern lose? You gave it to Northwestern. UNC earned that #1 seed. I did not go to either school but feel strongly you got it wrong!

@NULax @ILWomen Zero respect for your program

[Mary Blake @MaryKBlake]

@USALMag @NULax Filthy dirty play by Northwestern. Will @NULax do the right thing or just ignore it. So many people watching…

COACHES AND CAPTAINS
Your job isn’t to be liked—it’s to be respected.
Don’t let your team cut corners, make excuses, or disrespect each other.
Accountability isn’t punishment; it’s the path to greatness.
Hold them to your team's standards and watch them rise. #CultureWins

FAILING TO HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE:
- erodes your team's culture
- undermines your team's standards
- weakens your leadership credibility
- frustrates people who do the right thing
- destroys your team's chances of success

IF YOU WANT TO WIN,
YOU MUST HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE.

[Jamy Bechler @CoachBechler]

COACHES: Whatever you condone in your program is what you should be prepared to own and accept in your program. Don't be surprised when you get the very things you allow. What you accept, permit, reward, allow, or reinforce in your program becomes your culture.

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

Nick Saban: "Everybody's smart that goes to medical school. But everybody doesn't make it through… It's the same kind of thing with athletes. Some of 'em have great talent but they don't have the right psychological disposition."

Mindset Matters🔥.

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

If your coach holds you accountable, you are VERY fortunate. A lot of coaches accept their players doing whatever they want, whenever they want with no consequences. Discipline/responsibility/accountability are life prep! If your coach cares that much, you’re lucky so respect it!
