Take A Lesson from Hemingway

Coach Sonny Lane set clear priorities: 

• Family
• School
• Basketball

He also hired coach Celli. Hemingway said, "Writing is easy. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed." Hemingway was famous for clarity, using small words and short sentences. 

Sometimes school and sports are like that. This passage from "The Old Man and The Sea" shares his lessons. "Dentuso" means toothy (as in a shark). 

Man is not made for defeat, even against tough teams.
