Question

 (l) Late last year a new champion earned the title of Winningest High School Basketball Coach of All Time-and she's a 73-year-old Texas grandmother named Leta Andrews. Here are some life lessons from her winning ways:

(2)          . Andrews originally got her degree in elementary education, but knew

right away that being just a teacher was the wrong choice. She missed the sport she'd grown up playing and needed to find a way to combine basketball with her career. After going back for a second degree, Andrews was able to teach and coach on the high sohool level. Forty-nine years later, she still hasn't thought about giving up her beloved basketball.

(3) Hardship will make you stronger. Over the course of her career, Andrews has met

with more than a few male coaches who have neglected both her success and women's sports in general. She lets their “looking down” roll right off her like drops of sweat on a player's back. Instead, such slights make her work even harder to ensure her players believe they deserve as much success as any man, on and off the court.

(4) There’s no I in team. On bus rides to games, Andrews takes away her players' cell

phones. Texting, she says, does harm to teambuilding. You can't win without a unified team that knows how to communicate with each other. Socializing is an important factor to success, and when we focus on ourselves (or our electronics) rather than others, we miss valuable connections and experiences.

(5) Winning is everything. It just depends on how you understand “winning”. For

Andrews, victory on the court is the logical result of lots and lots of hard work and preparation. She believes in tough love to get her players focused on playing their absolute best, individually and as a team. While a winning game is the immediate goal, she hopes all of her players will carry the team spirit with them long after graduation.
