Team building reminds me of a great saying: Teams are as strong as their weakest link. For years, I have used this saying with players, coaches and administrators. I believe all influencing parts of a team are necessary to build powerhouses.
The Copperas Cove Bulldawgs closed out the 2020 football season with a 35-7 loss to Killeen Friday night.
Coaches take extra time to get to know their players. They learn about their habits, family situation and who their friends are. They get to know their players because they know when players believe a coach cares about them, they perform at a higher level. Some of the absolute best coaches are at schools with limited talent. Real success is not always measured on the scoreboard.
Austin — GOOD. Water clear; 62 degrees; 0.77 low. Largemouth bass are fair on crankbaits, skirted jigs, spinners, and jerk baits near boat docks, creeks, inlets, and rocky shorelines. There is an early morning bite with topwaters, chuggers, and poppers on rocky points and dropoffs. Sunfish are good on earthworms and live crickets along ledges, boat docks, and brush. Caffish are good punch bait, shrimp, and cut bait.
