“Something that makes us special as a team is the fact we all do little things to make us successful.  The girls won’t get recognition from the media or most casual fans for doing the things that make us successful.  Guarding the other teams’ best player and putting every ounce of effort into shutting her down.  Setting others up on offense with a screen or pass, or even by simply positioning yourself correctly so the defense has to make a choice.  Boxing out the nearest threat so our team can secure the rebound.  Pushing the players that get all the minutes to be better in practice by not taking it easy on them, and that’s not easy to do because it is easy to be complacent.  Communicating with teammates and coaches during games, and even telling them what they are seeing.  These things are all what makes our team special and I truly appreciate everyone’s efforts,” stated WCA Head Coach Eric Schoenbauer.
