@fitz19 Can I boo this post?🤪

Well, time for the ACCT. Time to crown THE champion of the ACC. I am ready for all the TV/AV Cart photos, stories, and jokes. History is history. No time for the hate. Never let Tradition die. To get everyone ready, a few recreations…..

Think about making a gift to the SNC Women’s Soccer program on Thursday.

Great first goal in the rain!

What type of team do you have??

You have to be obsessed to reach the top. Pure focus and dedication. Plan B’s aren’t an option.

@UWOWSoccer Congrats coach! Well deserved!

Hey we know her! 🥹 👏 congratulations coach!

Most athletes get discouraged or angry after making mistakes. If they only knew how much they could improve by learning from failure. This is why you need to stay positive and take advantage of every learning opportunity that you get!

To make it in soccer you have to give up a lot. But that doesn’t mean you don’t get to; -> See your family -> Follow other dreams you have ->Experience life outside of soccer Balance is key in this game.

The Best Coaches Build Relationships. How do you Build Relationships with your Players? - Love them - Push them - Be genuine - Talk to them - Listen to them - Believe in them - Encourage them - Laugh with them - Hold them accountable What would you add?

The best player on a team should also be the hardest worker on the team. If you are the best player on your team, you have great influence as a leader. If you work hard and put the team first, your teammates will follow you!

As an athlete, you’re only as good as your attitude. It doesn’t matter how talented you are, if you have a terrible attitude, you won’t accomplish much in life.

Not having the best situation, but seeing the best in your situation is the key to success.

Lead Yourself FIRST. - Be on time - Be positive - Say please - Help others - Pick up trash - Give your time - Say thank you - Open the door - Serve your teammates This is Leadership. Especially in today’s world. Lead by Example.

One thing you can't teach is hunger. You can definitely help people unlock it. But you can't MAKE them want it. If the desire isn't there, it's because that person hasn't found their why yet.

It's not a line. It's a measurement. A measurement of commitment. A measurement of sacrifice. A measurement of respect. A measurement of integrity. A measurement of fortitude. A measurement of effort. It's a symbol to remind us that greatness lies in the smallest of details.

If you strive for excellence in every area You'll always be better than those who don't Failure only repeats on the people who accept it and don't take necessary action to improve

If you can't execute in practice you won't execute on game day. If you're not confident in practice you won't be confident on game day. If you're not focused in practice you won't be focused on game day. The habits you cultivate in practice will show up on game day.

We still remember and we will always remember! Take a deep breathe and remember those we lost!
