What motivates you? Coach Saban simplifies.
Melrose scrimmaged Arlington Catholic in preparation for the playoffs. Scrimmages add value in multiple dimensions:
- Allows work on fundamentals with low stress and low stakes
- Creates a "high participation" setting where everyone plays
- Gives opportunity to show "high compete" levels.
The postseason turns on consistency and aggressiveness with a minimum number of unforced errors.
Several positives stood out:
1) The energy level was high both on the floor and the sidelines
2) Service was intentional, pressuring the defense
3) There were far more good "dos" than negative "don'ts."
4) Reserve players gave a good accounting of themselves
Melrose notes: Congratulations to Sabine Wenzel (Freedom Division co-MVP, All-Conference, All-Star) and Sadie Smith (All-Star)
Congratulations to juniors being recognized at the National Honor Society ceremony: Anna Burns, Maggie Shoemaker, Kayla Ton.
