"We gotta look and act like we belong here." - Jay Hernandez, The Long Game (based on a 1957 true story)
Few people enjoy overnight success. Most sports require years of practice, skill development, athletic growth, and experience. It takes will and patience. Call that "playing the long game."
MVB '24 is far away from its origin story. Teams of the early 2000's didn't have the privilege of legacy, league or sectional titles. But that didn't stop them from establishing one.
Fast forward and review the progress.
- Annual competitive volleyball
- A raft of Middlesex League titles
- Eleven consecutive D2 North Finals 2003-2013
- Ten D2 North Sectional titles
- State championship 2012
- Too numerous to count individual recognition
What matters?
- Bring the best version of yourself every day.
- Strive to be the best teammate.
- Control what you can control.
Countdown. The season is coming. You're still playing the long game.
