Coach Hayden stated that the weight room is a big key to success, and all the players need to be on the same page. There are not as many people in the weight room as there should be. One big improvement has been freshman Andy Plummer being Bement's first 1,000-pound lifter. He's got good potential. The team has started seeing that hard work does pay off.
Many students go to games to support their team and show their sportsmanship.
At Bement High School, though, some students don't have very much sportsmanship at all. I don't even stay for tip-off. Students also said that they have better things to do than go to the games. The cheerleaders try to get the students more involved in the game, but when the crowd does not want to respond, it is hard to cheer. The cheerleaders also said that they wish the students would be more enthusiastic about their team.
