Ran distance events in track and wrestled varsity in high school. Ran cross country in college. Learned the game of basketball in intramural at college and played many basketball tournaments, city leagues and noon ball at the local YMCA till I was 65. Started running sprints at seniors meets around the country about 9 years ago. I have 7 grandkids that I love dearly.
High School girls coach here. It's tough sometimes, but I respect their heart and fire. You also see a girl every now and then that is a great player, and she's fun to watch because she's so much better.
