Coaching-Pursuing athletic excellence through faith, virtue, and knowledge.

God has given each of us special skills, and this is especially true for sports coaches.

Through training the students condition their bodies for the games and they expand their minds through teamwork and leadership, things that prepare them for growing as adults.
