    HJ by 19. Kountze will be good but HJ has so much talent it's scary!
    [/quote]how do you they have so much talent,you got Prudhomme and the bosha kid, but than they have a new young PG that will be ok but will make stupid mistakes, and than they got the [b]2 bigs down low that are just OK[/b]. so where do you get "HJ has so much talent it's scary!"

    Correction. Devonte has great ball handling skills and will make you look stupid at any given time. Persohn is a multi-handed and can go either way to the rack great defense. Then Cade, is 6'8". He will block shots within a 5 foot radius.

    Someone mentioned to me last week that their kid participate in cross- country running as off season conditioning. Not sure of the reasoning why this is done unless it gives the players something to do while the gyms are being occupied by volleyball games and practice.

    I am from the school of thought that cross-country training does not adequately prepare one for basketball. Distance running uses a whole "nother" set of muscle fibers and energy than basketball.

    Cross country training utilizes and conditions slow twitch muscle fibers. Fast twitch muscle fibers are utilized in sprinting, jumping, all explosive movements , etc. Just compare a long distance runner's legs to a sprinters. There is what's called "specificity of training". In other words if I want to improve my vertical I wouldn't choose seated knee extensions, I would choose an exercise that's works the muscles in the specific manner they will be needed, so I would choose jumping movements, esp. plyometrics. There is also aerobic and non-aerobic activities. Long
    distance running is aerobic, and believe it or not basketball is predominantly non-aerobic, short distance sprints with decreased activity in between. Yes, basketball has an aerobic component, however, my lengthy point is "specificity of training". If you are engaging in cross country running to condition yourself for basketball you most definitely will not achieve optimal results.

    But at H-J we exercise both sets of muscle fibers!!

    I am looking forward to this season. I wont to see if the HJ coaches are as good as most think they are. This yrs team will be a complete different team then what has played at HJ for the last few yrs. They are big and strong inside with a good slashing 3 guard, but not the 3 shooting team of yrs past. Just wont to see if they coach to the kids or if they try to make the kids playup to them..

    We will actually have two of the best 3 point shooters in the district this year.
