In their last game the Buffs pounded the Mac Hi Pioneers 89-42, to get back on the winning side of things. At the present time their record is 7- Parents should be The saddest thing I ever heard a coach say was this: "The kids are all right; it's the parents who are caus ing the problems." What a sad reflection that is on the atmosphere surrounding a team. The coach has kids he enjoys working with and who respect him, the team is winning more than its share of games, but some parents say that's not good enough. An interested fan passed along this poem on the topic. Don't know who wrote it, but it sure says a lot: The Coach How badly you must want to win, Not for yourself but me. So help me play this game, dear Dad, With dedication, goals and dignity. Its embarrassing for me, Dad, When you criticize my coach. If you think you can be helpful, Then try a new approach. Call and make arrangements To meet him face to face, Far better than to yell at him In such a public place.

Please try to go along with him, Not judging wrong or right. You know he's got a job to do, That must be done tonight. As he stands alone down there, In front of all the fans, Help him do the job he must, By staying silent in the stands. Snap decisions he must make, Under pressure of the game, And certainly where you must sit, Tis' not really quite the same. Even when he calls it right, I often make a mistake, That surely makes him look as thou gh His coaching is at stake. Sometimes he will chew me out, Then he'll pat me on the back, And I will get it next time, You can count on that. He'll take the blame for losses And walk out on a limb, But he'll give his team credit For each and every win. So be there when I need you, Dad.
