PINK GAME

Westlake vs Murray tonight 7 pm at Murray High School. 

This is a PINK game dedicated to the Awareness of Breast Cancer and fight for the CURE.  Its traditional that in a PINK game the players get to have some fun and dress up their uniforms by wearing pink... pink socks, pink shoelaces, pink wristbands, pink tape and more.  Yesterday, the boys were priviledged to have a guest speaker share with them the significance of wearing PINK and their part in the BATTLE against breast cancer.  

GO THUNDER... WEAR YOUR PINK PROUDLY!!!

WE LEARN FROM OUR FAILURES

I have missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot . . . and missed. And I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why . . . I succeed.  Micheal Jordan

Pick your self up boys... tomorrow is a NEW day!
