All of our players work hard and are very coachable. This makes coaching very enjoyable. I am really looking forward to the season this year! Favorite Quote: “Communication does not always occur naturally, even among a tight-knit group of individuals. Communication must be taught and practicedin order to bring everyone together as one.” - Coach KLanceLanceI’d like to welcome you to the 2016-2017 season of Lady Leopard Basketball!This year’s motto for our program is “Together As One”, which is an integral part of what we believe isimportant as a basketball team. Leopard basketball takes all of us: parents, administrators, coaches,players, managers, and fans to unite as one for a common goal.District 15-5A looks to be a competitive district with the likes of Highland Park, Royse City, Forney, NorthForney, Mesquite Poteet, Wylie East, and West Mesquite. With only one senior player and nine returningVarsity Letterman, we are looking to make our mark on a new district that will undoubtedly prove to be verycompetitive. Our experience, continued growth from last year, and our bond as a team will surely prove tobe invaluable throughout the grind of a district schedule. With only one Senior player, program numbers willcontinue to rise, right along with excitement for Lady Leopard Basketball. To the three seniors in our program, I have enjoyed being your coach for the past three seasons. While youare a small in numbers, your impact has been immeasurable. You have led this group of girls to an amazingstart and your leadership is something that is very valuable to our program. I hope your senior year is thebest year yet. Good luck in the future!Thank you for your continued support. Go Leopards!Lance Boxell, Head Basketball Coach6
