Acknowledging and taking responsibility for your actions as a player, student and teammate.

We will face adversity on and off the court, but we will always work to find solutions.

GROWTH MINDSET

Regardless of where you start, all players have the ability to improve each day.

COLLABORATION

We cannot succeed as a unit unless we all support, encourage, and trust in each other.
