“Promoting education based athletics in Indiana”

How was your Thanksgiving break? Did you have an opportunity to give your mind and body some rest? If you are playing a winter sport, a free day or two is very useful during this time of year.

However, now is the time to buckle down again. Don’t slack in the classroom. Make it a point to pay close attention to your grades, you only have a few weeks until winter break.

Is your team off to a good start in November? Don’t slack on the court, in the pool, or the wrestling room. Strive to improve daily. The season flies by so quickly and you don’t want to look back when it’s over with any regrets.

Preparation today provides positive results tomorrow. Make sure that you are doing your part every day to improve yourself and your teammates. Those that don’t may find themselves falling behind with little or no time to catch up!
