FREE THROWS
I have always talk about shooting free throws during you work outs, especially when your tired and breathing hard. Then shooting a 100 after every work out to grove your shot! FREE THROWS can win you a big game and can haunt you and cost you a game. In both games tonight the FREE THROW LINE played a very big role. It nearly cost Louisville & Michigan a shot at the NATIONAL title game. So when working on your game find time to shoot some free throws. Run a few full court sprints or sideline sprints before you shoot yours. Oh yeah always keep track this will help give you feed back. If your not breathing hard then your not in a game like situation. Get out there and get better.

WARNING!
The Surgeon General has issued a severe WARNING! The flu epidemic is just about over! Brace yourself for a new epidemic!!
MARCH MADNESS, it is already started and it is starting to moving rapidly across the country. Yes it is HIGHLY, I repeat HIGHLY contagous. There is NO KNOWN CURE, and the is NO VACCINE for it. Symptoms include but are not limited to, Yelling loudly at the big screen TV, jumping up and down on a buzzer beater, sittting on the couch for hours watching games, taking your ipad to the bathroom to watch games, staying up way to late to watch games and phoning the office and letting them know how sick you are, and you can't make it in. The SURGEON General expect this epidemic to beat at it peak this next week end stating that Thursday though Sunday will be the worst four days!
He also said that friends who have these and other symptoms seem to get better if they can stay together to watch the NCAA tourney and let this disease run its course. Getting involved in brackets also seems to lessen the effects of this epidemic. GOOD LUCK

BEAVER FANS=AWESOME
I really want to thank our fans this year!! They were awesome. The last 2 home games the upper deck was full and the enitire house was packed about as full as it could get. Our student section was great.
The Blue Crue (a group of 8-10 student crazies) was beyound great this whole season. Last year they came to a game dressed as KISS. This year they came as cowgirls when we played Kanab and of course when we played Enterprise we even had BIG BIRD thin the house. I hope we can find some of the younger students to step up and take these guys place as they all graduate and will be missed. Due to our very loud and roudy crowd our gym is one of the toughest gym in the entire state for opposing teams to play in!!
Last of all thank you to the fans that travel to the away games no matter what the weather is. We really do appreciate you loyal support!
Hope to see a huge BEAVER crowd aup at the first round game next Saturday in Orem!

MENTAL TOUGHNESS
What is it and can I get me some!
Mental toughness is defined as- a collection of attributes that allows a person to preserver through difficult circumstances and situations.
I think that MENTAL TOUGHNESS is the confidence in your ability to perform at a high level in those tough situations. You get that confidence from practice! Yes I said practice, hours and hours, over and over those skills you need to be at your best when your best is needed. In other words putting yourself in those tight and tough situations in your daily practice work outs. Then the out come will become automatic or a muscle memory reaction. Think of shooting a free shot with the game on the line, if you have practiced this shot hundreds of times (with consequences) then your chance of making this shot is greatly increased.
Why? Because you have put youself in the pressure cooker at every work out and practice session, every day, 3 dribbles-sight in the target-deep breath-slowly exhale-SWISH!
So now the question is can I get some or develop some mental toughness?
I think you already know my answer, YES! Here are a few steps that I know will help you along the path to MENTAL TOUGHNESS.
1) When doing your individual work outs the must be GAME SHOTS-FROM GAME SPOTS-ALWAYS AT GAME SPEED
2) You must DEMAND more of yourslef, every day and in every drill.
3)You must CORRECTLY repeat the skill set you are working on over and over until it is an automatice response.
4) Put CONSEQUENCES on the out comes of your work outs. If I don't make 85 out of a 100 free throws I will run, and then shoot another 100.
5) Pay the price and get into the best SHAPE of your life. Do extra to get there, so you can give your absolute best, when your best is needed. The more physical toughness you have the easier it will be to develop the MENTAL TOUGHNESS you need.
Good luck get after and finish up strong. Then this summer when your working out on your own, start to develop that MENTAL TOUGHNESS!!
Good Luck!
