100% correct! Our JV guys bust their butts day in and day out in practice helping prepare our Varsity. A thankless, tough task at times. Incredible to see them show up each day with an awesome attitude. It doesn’t go unappreciated. Definition of #BeDifferent
Man I'm proud of our JV guys this year. Finished their season at St. Thomas last night. The commitment, improvement, and 100% buy-in to playing for eachother was evident. The future of BLC Basketball is in GREAT hands!
