Bayside Tournament Conclusion

Dear Bronco Parents and fans,
Greetings in the name of Jesus!!
I just wanted to drop a line and just mention how proud of our young men that I am.  They played extremely hard yesterday.  The final scores in both games really don't, in my opinion, tell the whole story.  First of all, the biggest thing I saw is that our guys competed!  Now, truth be told, in the first game, we started out a bit scared but once they saw they could play with Dickinson, they did better.  The second game was just us not taking care of the ball or fundamentals at times and that hurt us. 
Second - the Dickinson coach praised our boys and their effort and for that I am grateful.  As I told the boys after the 2nd game, and I truly believe this, we did not get beat as much as we beat ourselves.  I believe that the young men on this team are going to be that much better because of the experience of playing against teams that we don't normally play.  We learned some good things about ourselves and the boys were able to point out some things that they said we need to work on and that excites me about this coming week of practice. 
I just want to tell you parents how much I appreciate you and your support and your testimony at the tourney.  Some of you saw how out of hand parents can get in some of the other games there.  You did your sons, school, and Savior proud!!

For Him Alone,

Coach Tracy Don Holcomb
