Expectations for the upcoming season

Expectations are tricky -- especially for a coach in preparing her or his team for the season. Here's what Amy Wood wrote in a pre-season note to the team, which appeared on the BCC Field Hockey website:

``I am setting my sights very high for our team this season. We have all of the tools necessary to again vie for a division, region and state championship. It will take all of the hard work from you prior to the start of preseason. I am starting the season off as if our team goal is our highest attainable goal. The one we set every year. But this year, if that is what you want, show me from day one. the entire team will need to be in excellent physical shape, mentally tough and with much improved basic skills. If this occurs, we will begin at a far more advanced level than in recent years.''

New season, new, tougher league (4A), same high expectations.
