“Never compromise your principles; never lower your standards.

Whatever it is that you desire to do in life, have the courage and commitment to do it and do it to your absolute best.” - Pat Summit

If you don’t sacrifice for what you want then what you want becomes the sacrifice

'Complacency is the forerunner of mediocrity. You can never work too hard on attitudes, effort and technique.'
Don Meyer

Jay Wright said, 'Where is your mindset after something bad happens to you?...The fact is, none of us controls what happens to us in life - but we do control our responses to those circumstances.'

Your attitude is a daily choice.

It's a choice to respond to adversity, not

'What you achieve is directly related to what you put in.

If your work ethic and goals don't line up, something has to change.

Most people sell themselves short and lower their bar.

Don't be most people.

Change what most won't: your work.' Darren Fenster

If you want to shine in front of everybody, you have to work in front of nobody.

🚨ICYMI🚨

C1 Minden beat undefeated Beatrice on the road last night for a confidence boost heading into winter break.

The Whippets haven’t lost since losing their opening night matchup and are starting to put things together with consistent practices after a State 🏐 Title👀

Congrats to Myla Emery and her teammates on all of their honors. What a season!

If you want to be great, then accept the fact that you are going to have to work really hard for days, weeks, months, and years.
Don’t spend 2 hours searching for a way to get out of 45 minutes worth of work, or criticize others because you are unwilling to get uncomfortable.
