As Hewitt’s volleyball, cross country, and soccer teams bid their good-byes until preseason next August, the basketball and swim teams are coming together in hopes of making athletic history at our school. You may ask,“How are they going to do that?”
As a member of the JV Basketball team, I know what our goals are. According to Coach Anna, one of these is to become a “running team.” This is going to take a lot of endurance and perseverance, but we cannot wait to outrun the other teams in the league. We have faith that this is the answer the team has been looking for in the past few years. We have not had all that many practices so far, but I think we are looking good and felt ready for our first game against Trinity. As for Varsity, Coach Ray is hoping that the team will play consistently. “I expect to be more experienced than most of our opponents, so we should play with more composure.” Coach also says that “we have an experienced point guard to run the show.” If you are wondering who this said point guard is, you will just have to attend a game! Come out to support your fellow Hawks! Game schedules for the Varsity and JV teams are on the Intranet under the Hewitt Athletics Blog.
