Ice Ice Baby
Thursday’s practice all about restoring the body & mind.
Austin Nelson and Brandon Glanz hit the ice bath in the training room.
Its been a long couple of weeks with 6 games and 4 practices in the last eleven days. Even for the most well trained athletes, the body and mind always needs to be refreshed. On Thursday, the Cougars brought in a professional fitness coach to take the team through a 30 minute stretching routine. The team also refreshed their mind by walking through offense and defense and mixed in a little five on five full court at full speed. Some of the players had one on one meetings with the coaches to discuss their roles and let themselves be coached on their game play. Towards the end of practice, the tub was loaded and any players that wanted to could stay for an ice bath to refresh their muscles.
Following practice the players got together in the team room to have cake and celebrate Austin Nelson’s 17th birthday.
The team will get a good nights rest and be more than ready to go Friday night at Del Sol where they will have chance, with a win, to guarantee a home playoff game. Tip off at Del Sol is 6:30pm.
For some reason, Schmitt’s hair turned red while in the bath. Gaven enjoying the cool temperatures.
