What's Happening?
The Homewood-Flossmoor (H-F) girls volleyball team is focusing on building a strong team foundation under new coach Nate Nesbit. The team is engaging in activities that promote unity, such as reading 'The Champion Teammate' and discussing it during practice. Nesbit, who was previously the junior varsity head coach, is implementing a 'WE OVER ME' philosophy to foster a sense of community and teamwork. Senior players, including Kymora Scott and Ihuoma Ozoh, are leading by example, with Scott committed to Wisconsin and Ozoh to Clemson.
Why It's Important?
The emphasis on team unity and community involvement is crucial for the H-F girls volleyball team as they aim to improve their performance and build a lasting program. This approach not only enhances team dynamics but also prepares players for high-pressure situations, as experienced in previous competitions. The focus on leadership and mentorship from senior players is expected to inspire younger team members and strengthen the overall program.
What's Next?
As the season progresses, the H-F team will continue to develop their skills and teamwork. The integration of community outreach and support for younger players is expected to create a sustainable and competitive program. The team's performance in upcoming matches will be a testament to the effectiveness of Nesbit's coaching philosophy and the players' commitment to the 'WE OVER ME' approach.
