With respect to the HS coach who I don't know.....they have gotten better as a team in large part because a big bubble of talent was pulled together years ago by Hurst at Northside....and then further developed with outstanding club coaching from Efrain Tirado.

Thats why Clover has gotten better. Add to that a few key players such as the girl from CSC Blue and also Britta from CESA Challenge....and you have a team on the rise. Last piece of the puzzle are passionate, commited parents. Which Clover now has.

Should be a greatly improved team this year...who will get better and better over the next couple of years.



With respect to the aforementioned--whom I don't know personally, but I hear enough good things to respect--I think you also have to give some credit to the coach who puts it all together into something that works. A good high school coach can use talent to its best advantage and bring the best out in players...while a bad one can waste everything. If a HS team is successful, I think we have to give at least part of the credit to the person at the helm.

I've got good news and bad news...
