So amazing being able to listen to @JonGordon11 at the #TexasLeadershipTour enjoyed several great speakers. "Teammates are forever." When we focus on transformations over transactions this is what happens. Thankful and blessed for the opportunity. @BoerneISD
Play for something bigger than yourself.
Stats fade.
Recognition comes and goes.
But purpose? That lasts.
When you step on that field, it’s not just about you.
It’s about your team.
Your growth.
The way you show up and impact others.
And even more than that—it’s about honoring the gifts God gave you.
Play with heart.
Play with joy.
Play with purpose.
Because the legacy you leave won’t be measured in numbers…
…it’ll be measured in how you made others better.
#playwithpurpose

Transactional vs. Transformational Coaching…
Dan Hurley shared a story about asking Geno Auriemma for advice after a rough start last season. Geno didn’t mince words:
“Listen, if the only gratification and the only part of coaching that excites you is winning the national championship, then you’ve lost your way, buddy! Where’s the joy in the things that you’ve always been about as a coach before you went on the championship run, like relationships with your players, like helping people get better, like making your team the best it can be. Be a coach, man. This is when you really need to be a leader. This team isn’t as good as last year’s, so what the hell are you going to do about it? Are you going home? Are you going to let this thing unravel?”
That’s the tension every coach feels:
Transactional vs. Transformational.
Transactional coaching is outcome-obsessed. It’s about the wins, the losses, the trophies. The problem? When results don’t come, your purpose crumbles with them.
Transformational coaching is different. It’s about people. It’s about growth. It’s about building something that lasts, whether the scoreboard agrees with you or not.
And this is why mentorship matters so much in coaching.
Left on our own, it’s easy to drift into a transactional mode without even realizing it.
A trusted mentor can pull us back to center and remind us why we started coaching in the first place.
To build relationships.
To develop players as people.
To make teams the best they can be.
Wins matter. But they’re not the why.
The why is impact.
The why is growth.
The why is leaving your players better than you found them.
The process is the prize. Stay grounded. Stay on the path.
Always remember your why.
@GregBerge@gateshoops2000 This! It's about making a difference and a positive impact. I thank God each day for the opportunity He has given me to make a positive difference and to be a witness in the lives of others each day.
🎉26 years ago today, Emily & I said “I do!” What a journey it has been. So proud of the life we have built, with 2 wonderful daughters, in our amazing community, & surrounded with support from our family & friends. It hasn’t been always been easy, but it’s always been worth it!
We are proud to announce that Mrs. Lauren Sanders has been named the new Principal at Viola Wilson Elem. For the past 3 yrs she has been an invaluable part of BHS as an AP. She is a truly dedicated & hardworking advocate for students & teachers. We’ll miss her dearly!
