Engine  I couldn't agree more I hear from the daughter how brutal it is.  But they get a sense of accomplishment and pride from just getting through it.   lol while writing this i just got a call from her about Thermo Dynamics.  She had a internship with Milken in Kentucky this summer. Flew her on a private plane and paid her housing and pretty well for the summer.   One of the things they told her that they were attracted by her was the fact that she was an athlete. They told her they like athlete's and others who are in outside curriculum because they have to do everything the student has to do but they show with athletics how they can manage time and their workload.

Basketball is important to the players but there is no doubt the classroom comes first and if basketball has to take a backseat at times that is the way it is.  I dont know if the team will be as good as right before Kahlan came when they had the sisters but I think they are going to be pretty good.  If Nosa  had decided to keep playing i think they would win the conference but i think they still have that opportunity

some good news it appears  wilson will at least be playing weekend games. On a bigger note someone who i have known for years and always tells me the way it is said after the first weekend of practice that its very apparent Hein and Bauer is multi steps up  from the others. that is not to take away from the others but compliments to their talent in her words they pretty much can do what they want on the court and that is coming from one of the best defenders in the conference.   Proof is in the pudding and one if they are that good hopefully they keep playing unlike the previous 2 D1 players from the last 2 years who decided not to keep playing.

Im sitting here figuring out airfare to the girls games  and on our local news there was a fight between carolina and viking fans as I am from Minnesota.  I have noticed alot of this going on at sproting events and not to sound to self patting on the back it reminded me 2 years ago I was in Hanover supporting my daughters team  she was out with a concussion but we got to watch the mens game before hand and a player for Hanover caught my attention and for no particular reason except i admired his play I wrote the coach.  If we spent just a  little of our time reaching out and saying what we respect in others as we do about bitching all the time just think how better the world can be.  I have coached alot of boys and girls and they have become men and women and i have alot of things i take pride in on them but this one random response from parents always brings a smile to my face I would like to share for what its worth

Hi Coach

In todays times everyone only writes when they want to complain.  I would like to do the opposite.  I am a dad of  a player from Minnesota for the Rose womans program. I stayed to watch the men's game and i just wanted to share with you how impressed myself and another dad from Kansas thought of your senior #40. I am sure he has always gotten platitudes and I could tell how he was respected by the Rose players.  To watch a player play with such a high basketball IQ combined with athletic ability and I hope he wouldnt take this the wrong way but play old school was just terrific to watch. i dont know what he has planned for his future but i know this he is going to own any mens  or YMCA League

Just wanted to share that his play was appreciated.  Ill be rooting for Rose Friday but looking forward to seeing him play again.

Their Response

Hi Chris.  In recent days you had sent an email to Coach Jon Miller, head basketball coach at Hanover,  regarding one of his senior players, #40. Coach Miller in turn forwarded your email to his parents; that would be us.  We hope that you don't mind that he shared your email with us.  My husband, myself and Kevin (#40) would sincerely like to thank you for your kind words. It is a rare occasion when a total stranger sees an opportunity to forward a compliment to someone and then takes the time to actually deliver it.  We are so humbled that you recognized Kevin in doing what he loves to do more than anything. He has a passion for basketball that started when he was four. He has always worked hard and taken a blue collar approach to the game.  He has enjoyed the intense rivalry and competition that Hanover and Rose have played these past four years, respecting both the Rose players and their coach, Rusty Loyd. Again, we can't begin to thank you enough for your kind words. We wish you all the best and hop that your daughter enjoys her time at Rose and all of her future endeavors.

I was told   that Baum is easily the most athletic  player  Rose has ever had that she could be on Indiana states roster. And that if she stays healthy she will have a monster career. Hein Immense hi iq who just makes everyone better on the floor and gives them a playmaker to the hoop.  There concern is depth the players will have to be able to long times on the court as of now they only have 7 or 8
