Let me add, for whatever it's worth - don't be afraid to ask people for advice. Well, ok, you're doing that now, but I mean asking people that have seen you work, or have worked with you. They might have a better understanding of what you need to work on immediately to improve. This also goes along with what rainmaker said - seeing a tape of yourself might also reveal some things that you didn't even know you were doing (or not doing).

But, don't ask everyone in sight. And don't ask them in the middle of a game. Find a couple of people you can trust, that you could consider "mentors", and ask them ahead of time if there's a chance they could watch you work. Or, perhaps, if you have a game tape, you could offer to bring over a few brownpops and watch the tape together on a day off. Use some of those opportunities to learn and pick up some pointers.

And last, but certainly not least, keep checking back here for more tips and information as the season progresses.
