Coach Cullop did something in about a 15 minute span that other coaches spend a career preaching. NEVER GIVE UP!
Down by 21 pts. in the second half of a road game she had a decision to make. Should she accept that the game was lost and build for the future by giving game experience to the freshmen or play her most experienced players, going for a win that most of us thought was out of reach. I think most coaches would have had selected the first choice because the second was the most risky.
By making her decision to play the most experienced players she sent a loud message to her players. She doesn't just talk the talk, she walks the walk. Proving with her actions, that she truly believes in them and together there is nothing they can't over come. Believe in yourself because I believe in you.
What a teaching moment! Not done with words but with action. Every player on that team will forever believe that nothing is impossible. Play hard, believe in yourself and your team mates, good things will happen.
Every player now knows that they have a coach who believes in them. In return they will believe in their coach.
Go Blue!!!
