Breaking Old Habits

The exciting two-game winning streak has, alas, been broken. It was difficult as a parent to watch the loss of momentum for both the Jr. High and the Varsity teams last week, especially witnessing some of the players succumb to the “we are losers” attitude too early in the game.
