MOONEY CARDINALS GIRLS BASKETBALL COACH’S CORNER (EP2 WITH JASON BAKER)

There’s a plague in the Mooney gymnasium that says “Tradition doesn’t graduate”, and a tradition of consistency has been established by the Lady Cardinals and Coach Jason Baker. One of tenacity, toughness, discipline and unselfishness. Fighting through injury and developing an offense week to week, the Cardinals have relied on those traditions early on and it’s carried them to a 6-2 start.

While every team around this team of year is balancing practices with time off for the holidays, the Cardinals are still preaching the basics of team defense and smart basketball. Nate Keiper managed to sit in for one of these practices, and talked with the Coach about fighting through adversity, and how they are preparing for an extremely tough test against Warren Harding this week.
