Fighting off pessimism

               At this point in the season, we still have time to get things straightened out (if things are straightenable) and finish strong in the conference season. But time is ticking. And with every loss there is a risk that the team will get discouraged and effort may begin to lag. Whatever our record, you want the team to play hard, but if their hearts are not in it, that is difficult. It falls to the coaching staff to keep them motivated, and if the feeling persists that the staff is on its way out the door, it could be impossible.
