**MSG FROM COACH JERRY**11/5/02
Hi guys, thanks for a great season! Since this is one of my last messages for you as a team this season I wanted to tell all of you how proud I am. This team is a very special team with a lot of character and pride. I know tonight�s loss was hard but I was happy to see that no one gave up. We almost made our service error goal of 5 or less. We had 6 service errors which is not bad for us as a team. Normally we average around 8 or 9 as a team. Everyone stepped it up, but unfortunately it wasn't enough this time. Just know that I feel we are all winners on this team not because of our record or how we played, but because of how we improved as a team and how we have come so far from day one. Please take everything you learned this season to heart. From vb skills, to how to set goals, I know no matter what team any of you play on next season you will be an asset. Out of everything I have said to you guys this season I think the most important concept I want everyone to take with them is knowing you need to always have a positive attitude no matter what the situation. Even though you make a mistake sometimes, keep learning and keep improving. Well guys, I wish everyone the best for the rest of the year and I hope everyone keeps playing volleyball in the off season. I'm gonna miss practicing with you guys now that our season is done but I will definitely see all of you at our celebration events.
PS. Championship team medals, maybe a MS S. School Championship announcement, and a Championship dinner
or event will be coming soon, so check the website for up to date info... See you all laters.
**THANK YOU FROM COACH JERRY**
I just wanted to say thank you to all the parents for coming out to Booth Park. I had such a great time eating, playing volleyball, and chatting with everyone. All your gifts and kind words about this season was much appreciated and very encouraging. Thank you for making this season so great for me, I couldn't have asked for better parents and players to work with. Good luck to everyone with the rest of the school year! See you later!
