48 games, about 2/3 HS girls, most of them varsity.
1 assistant coach.
1 illegal substitution.
Not a bad year. Maybe coaches are getting more polite.
Nah, I don't think so either.

Thanks, everyone.
This leaves only one of my questions unanswered:
If it's so much to our advantage to get deep as lead, why are we encouraged to be shallow as lead on a 3-person crew? I don't...
