15 Black Achieves Team Goal

On Jan 8th the Adversity-Wisconsin 15 Black team had their first tournament of the year. Their goal was to score 18 or more points against their competition in this 16's division event in Pleasant Prairie. While the team only won 2 out their 5 matches on the day, they reached their goal of 18+ points in 9 of their 11 games! "While a number of individuals had impressive stats, many contributed to the team's overall success. We win or we lose as a team" Pauers stated. 

Coach Pauers felt it was a solid first outing and shared that "the team's key to future success will be to abandon personal problems and fears, and overcome adversity. Our tournament schedule is not easy. It's not simply about winning. It's about challenging ourselves and improving - and this weekend we accomplished that."  (Photos have been added to the Albums tab.)

Your coaches put a great deal of time into preparing for each practice, but in extreme weather, safety comes first.  You decide what is best for your family, so travel at your discretion. When poor driving conditions exist, please check here for any possible updates. Should the coaches decide to cancel practice, it will be posted here 2-3 hours prior to the start of practice.  

Roadtrip for 15 Orange

On Saturday morning the 15's Orange team had their first team meeting. Wasting no time at all, coach Ben Jedrzejewski and the girls planned a team outing for the very next day! Destination - the Al McGuire Center to watch the Cincinnatti Bearcats beat No. 5 Notre Dame in the Big East Conference Championship match.

Looks like this group knows how to set a goal and reach it - FAST. Way to start the season!

Thankful for the Season and all our New Families!
