All Earnest Academy studs coach Benny said it perfectly about these girls. They put in the work at the Academy and look what they accomplished the championship game. We came up short this year but you can learn more about yourself when you lose. I can promise you this these girls will be back. They will be back at the academy and I will not let them forget what happened and we will fix the problem and we will be back in this same spot next year ready for War. At the academy we won’t push things under the rug we will deal with it and get better and use this as a motivational tool to get better. This will be my 5th team that has been to the championship game out of the academy. Minot High Boys academy kids on there three year run. Minot High girls academy kids on there championship run. Bishop Ryan Boys got to the championship game with Anthony Vetter (Academy kid) and that crew and Redeemers got to the championship game with Leyton Lang (Academy kid) and that crew and now South Prairie girls academy kids all over this crew. Again I don’t have to say anything my kids on these teams do my talking. Shout out to these South Prairie girls great job I’m sooo proud of you but let’s get back to work and do what we do so we get get this title next year. Academy kids allllll day they all know exactly what it is WE WILL NEVER EVER STOP!!!!! Lets go.

Let me tell yaw something. Everybody knows how much I love love my kids. I love them so much I put them out in the world early to get beat up so they can learn. I know people are like why does Earnest have a second grade team traveling, well this is why CHAMPIONS playing up in the 3rd grade B division. These are SECOND graders they took there lumps all year and not one time coach Matt came to me and said Earnest I think this is to much for the girls. No No I pick DOGS for me traveling teams I pick kids that likes to compete. I pick kids that hate to lose I pick kids that have that will to win. I train these kids with that will to win attitude and look at us now. Do you think after this championship they are thinking about all the loses they took. Nope look at there faces and you ask yourself where should you be bringing your kids to get this training, where will they go where trainers know the process for these kids as they grow. You know the answer Earnest Academy we will always do what’s best for the kids. We are patient with the kids we know where they are when they come to us and we know how to get them there when they come see us. But we also pick the right coaches to coach them to get them to the next level. My SECOND GRADERS champions alllll day, Sorry I had to vent a little for this team because know one knows the work coach Matt Mueller and Mr. Varty puts in with these kids but I know and I appreciate you guys allll day. They all know exactly what it is WE WILL NEVER STOP and why would they we are Earnest Academy kids allll day. Let’s go!!!
