Good lord, where did you come from...have you not been reading LR forums...of course you are supposed to compare them over the years both on weight, times, etc etc - and then write them off as soon as you see them level at all...
All joking aside...thanks for posting this. Despite all the crap that gets posted on these sites about poorly coached kids, and school programs trying to get the most out of HS athletes with no thought of the kids future....the majority of coaches and programs are very well run and are fully behind the successful promotion of the kids to the college level.
And while the fundamentals of coaching males/females are the same, there certainly are substantial differences in the approach and application that needs to be taken. So refreshing to hear this being recognized and addressed by current coaches.
Thanks CoachHammel...you seem like an absolute credit to the coaching industry, and I wish you and your athletes continued success.
