Soooooo if you didn't know, I'm from North Little Rock, AR. That's my hometown baby! So you already know I had to check up on the Girls Basketball Team! I had the honor of interviewing the One and Only.... Ms. Dajha Hardamon! Ya know.... The coolest girl ever mane! I said Dajha... "How determined are y'all to win state mane? How bad do y'all really want it?" Dajha told me, "Very determined! We go in practice everyday working hard for the next opponent!! Making each other better!! Every one is so focused and we all have our minds set one thing and that's to WIN!! No exception we go out and play every game like it's our LAST and give it our all!" 

I noticed that the Pulaski Academy Girls Basketball team worked hard enough to become the #1 seed for the up and coming State Tournament! I wanted to interview Alex Otwell about their recent success, how did they overcome all of the adversity and how much handwork did it take to get to the position they are in! Alex said, "Oh we're very determined this year. At the beginning of the season, we weren't really sure how the season would end up for us. But as we kept getting better in the gym everyday and got a few games in, we realized that we could really make a statement if we put our hearts in it. And it's been easy to put in so much time because of how much we love each other. I've never had a team that I've felt closer to than my team this year. We're like a family and I think that plays a big part in how successful teams end up. The only adversity we've really come across is just losing games that we shouldn't have. But that happens to every team, if it were possible to have a perfect season then basketball wouldn't be as fun of a game as it is. WE just bounced back and fixed what we needed to!" I thought this was amazing and true! I agree totally with Alex! Congratulations to the Pulaski Academy Girls Basketball Team and good luck during the State Tournament! This is an amazing accomplishment! Y'all should be proud and continue building each other up.

Shouts out to the Episcopal boys for winning and moving on to the Championship game for Regionals! These boys have been working hard and have battled adversity. I asked William Pollock, "How determined are you to win another Regional", he simply said, "It feels good to get rewarded for our hardwork all season. I am as determined as a senior playing his last season can be." Hardwork pays off and "all things are possible, if you believe." These boys were the first ones to know about the movement and I should say they know how to believe. The grind never stops and I know they have one goal on their minds this year. They got to the big game last year and came up short but we know it's going to take hardwork and dedication to make it to that final game again. Shouts out to my boys mane. Beezy loves and misses yall.

"All things are possible, if you believe."
