GREAT First Practice

Well, today finally arrived! After hours and hours, and days upon days of preparation, the team finally made it to the practice field. The weather was PERFECT, and the managers did a FANTASTIC job of having everything prepared and ready!

It was very obvious that the players have also done a great job of getting ready. It was clear that they have been working hard on their own. It was also clear to me, and many others watching, that this freshman class is extremely talented, hard working, very coachable. I can attest that they are FUN to work with too. Coach Stoops and his staff do an incredible job of recruiting not only great players, but kids with great personality and character.

Today's practice was fun to watch, and I can only imagine things will get better.

Below are a few pictures from this mornings practice.
