Springfield girls ‘leave nothing’
SPRINGFIELD — Wynette Carter is admittedly a quote fanatic.
Each week, the Springfield high School girls basketball coach gives her team a quote to help get them ready for each week.
This week’s quote came from the Nike T-shirt she was wearing at practice on Tuesday, Dec. 2 — “Leave Nothing.”
That’s what happened in their 46-38 victory over Troy in their home opener at Springfield High on Wednesday, Dec. 3.
“Leave nothing,” Carter said. “That was the motto for today — put it all out there and they truly did.”
The Wildcats (2-1) used a 1-2-2 press and a 2-3 zone in the third quarter which made the Trojans go cold from the outside and led to steals for both Shanay Portis and Auzsa Taylor.
“I told them the first three minutes of the third quarter was crucial,” Carter said. “It makes or breaks the team. We buckled down and did a great job.”
