Being in a region where we never have adequate supplies, we've become accustomed to "making due" with what little we have, but does that mean we should continue to struggle? Our students deserve to have the best quality resources, if only to experience it once in their lives. Basketball teaches life lessons, among them is to "Never Give Up", even when everything around you, tells you to. It is hard to build confidence in students when all of our equipment is inferior to what they see with other schools. Help me affect change within our program.
