IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week
PGA golfing great Tom Watson has said that he liked to picture legend
Sam Snead’s swing when the heat was on.
The same can be said for whatever sport you play. When the pressure is
on, visualize an athlete that excels under pressure, and picture his/her
success in your mind.
When you get nervous or jittery, think about this technique to calm you
down and get you relaxed. Regardless of what routine you use, do so with
a positive mindset that produces positive results. Sometimes, seeing is
believing!
Week in Review
Boys Track- The Boys Track team were runners-up in the Goshen Relays in
Class A. This is the highest Class A finish for the Goshen team ever! Thanks to
the great team effort, it is also the first time they have been 2nd overall (in
both A & B) since 1993!
Girls Tennis- A big thank you from the Girls’ Tennis team to everyone who
made it to Culver’s last Monday to support them during their fundraiser! It
was a great success and was very encouraging to see so many people
supporting our team!
Reminders from Mrs. Schrock
Required Paperwork: Just a reminder to all athletes planning on participating in
workouts this summer or planning to go out for a fall sport: Try to turn in ALL
paperwork before school lets out for the summer so that you are ready to go for the
summer and next year. You must have a physical, emergency card, and
cardiac/concussion forms turned in to Mrs. Schrock in the Athletic Office. Paperwork
can be picked up in the Athletic Office or can be found on the GHS Athletics website.
