Time to start conference play

Amazingly enough, it is already time to start ASC Conference play beginning this Saturday with Mississippi College. This past weekend we had the opportunity to play Trinity and St. Olaf and overall it was an encouraging start. Like usual in the beginning of the season, we are in the process of learning to play together and figuring out everyone’s strengths and how to best use them to be successful. We are all looking forward to continuing that as we travel to Clinton, Mississippi and Pineville, Louisiana. Our young ladies seem determined to get better every time they step on the court, whether that is for practice or a game. As a coach, that is a crucial ingredient for us to meet our 2009-10 season goals. We hope to you at our home opener Thursday, December 3rd versus University of Texas at Tyler. Go Cowgirls!

Inspired

Basketball season is truly upon us and will be in full swing starting this Friday. We open our season in a Tip-Off Classic at Trinity University. It will be a weekend of tough competition, which is exactly what we need in order to prepare for ASC Conference play beginning next week. As of right now, I feel anxious anticipation and excitement about our upcoming season. Obviously, we have extremely high expectations and I believe our players are dedicated to the daily commitment it will take to meet them. More than anything right now though, I feel INSPIRED by our Cowgirl and Cowboy soccer teams who are both ASC Conference CHAMPIONS and are in the NCAA Sweet 16. Our program will strive to continue the traditions of HSU Athletics! It is great to be a COWGIRL!
