IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week
It’s funny how fame works. A week ago few people knew the name
Grayson Allen, unless you were a Duke basketball fan. Now he is known
throughout basketball circles in America.
One game and how things can change. When opportunity knocks on your
door, will you be ready to take advantage of it? Will you be prepared?
Grayson was. He was averaging four points per game prior to his national
title game performance. When Coach K called his number, he responded.
If you are a substitute or role player for your team, are you going to
respond when you are called upon? You may not be in the national
spotlight, but your goal should be the same. When you get your chance,
be ready to capitalize on your opportunity!
