The team huddles for the final time during half-time to discuss strategy for the second half. With a score of 0-0, the Cats were working to elevate their offensive play. I absolutely loved the competitive fire in the team and their strong desire to work hard in practice and carry that over to games. They craved hard work, and that is also on of my favorite parts of coaching WJ. The work ethic of this team is amazing, coach Neil Gottlieb said.
