Four reasons to not be afraid of seeking help for your mental health:
1. Mental health is just as important as physical health.
2. Seeking help doesn’t mean you’re weak.
3. Everyone struggles with mental health to a certain extent.
4. Many people will support you.
So far this school year, the Bulldogs have won 8 WIC Championships:
2x Volleyball
Boys XC Team Champs
Quiz Bowl Champs
2x Boys Wrestling
Boys T&F Team Champs
Boys Golf Team Champs
Congrats to our students, coaches, sponsors, and parents on all of their success!

"....this is something big for us. It’s been a long time since we won many playoff games, and now we’re hosting one. We don’t have the nicest field in the state, and maybe it’s not better than anybody's, but when people come here it’s tough for them to adapt. We’re definitely going to try to use that home field advantage, and ride it to a win on Friday night.”

How you practice is more important than how long you practice. Two hours of intense, focused training is more productive than six hours of sloppy, unfocused training.
If you read my post about finding the goodness in loss or hard moments I said I would share this video.
My husband Doug has been at the top of this sport. He has won a state title, a NCAA title, the US Open, World Team trials, placed 5th at the world, and was an Olympian.
Through all that he has experienced his fair share of losses and getting through them. Our son participated in his first HS state tournament and although he came up short taking home 2nd, Doug did not have a lack of words to share with other parents who have or will go through it from his new perspective of a parent of a HS athlete.
So much goodness packed into this. I challenge every parent to watch it, especially those with kids in some sort of even/sport that they compete in. Doug not only talks about validating your child's feelings because of the work it took to get there, but he speaks to the things he as an athlete experienced just now from the perspective of a parent of a High School kid.
By far this is one of his best talks and knowing how his heart hurt for his kid, while probably tuning back into some of his own losses made this even more relatable.
I know one thing- I'm lucky that our kids, both our own and the ones that will be joining us at UNI eventually have someone like him under the tunnel in these moments. Although my heart ached matside and I was probably 30 yards from my kid in one of his most vulnerable and defeating moments, I knew he didn't need me, he needed him.
