So proud of my SOLDIERS!, Defenders(STONE) finished the exposure period (battle baltimore 4-0, metro classic 4-0, Rose Summer Showcase 1-1) strong, 9-1. Congratulations! You’ve had a tremendous season! So Proud! Just So Darn Proud Of Every Player In Program. Defenders(Frederick) finished strong as well, improving with each game down the stretch. When most would have given up, these ladies beat the odds and fought through for victory or near victory, or even defeat, and grew with each game. I love you and am proud of you in ways you just can’t image. You inspire me to fight my way back to 100%. I will accept NOTHING less for myself because you have accepted nothing less. True inspiration!

Coach Frederick and Nicole you have done a tremendous job for the program. The way you guys stepped up when I went down is admirable. Best coaching staff in the world, any level, any pay grade! I will put you up against anyone!

Parents, without your unwavering commitment to me and this program there is no way I could have gone through these past weeks. NO WAY! I thank you one and all for holding together and allowing your girls the opportunity to see how good they could really become. For that I thank you all. I would also like to thank you for working so hard at the fund raisers. Because of that I am able to send those players who have been in the program from the beginning to Ohio at NO registration cost to them! Yes the club picked up the tab for registering 16 players @ $90 each. Also the club paid for the summer league games @ W 4th Street and CAS Douglas combined costed $1,650.

Finally there is Q James. The entire program owes you it’s very life for the 2010 season. You alone save our season because you stepped into the Administrator role and seamlessly guided the program through to this point and made it look effortlessly. I know for certain that is took tremendous effort on your part to manage the defenders commitments and your own. God Bless You! Thank You hardly seems adequate. Much LOVE!

The FBC Defenders(STONE) finished up the regular season on a tear (3rd Place) as their final standing are as follows; 4 wins 2 losses, played without their regular season head coach (John Stone) for all W 4th Street games. New head coach (Jasmine Lytle) guided the squad the allof the way and has been flawless in that effort. Big thanks the the adults (John Frederick) on the bench as the team could not possibly have done this without you (Jerod, Mrs. Stone, Andrea). The program is so lucky to have people like you! Reason, Season, Lifetime.

Next up for the Defenders @ W 4th Street are the playoffs where they will be the Lady XMEN in the semi-final game @ 9:15 a.m. Hope to see all Defenders family at the game!!!!

This is my most favorite time of year! Thanksgiving marks the reclamation of family and friends while giving all the praise to the almighty! The day after Thanksgiving is special to me because that marks the beginning of the high school season in NJ! Yes it is the time when all the talking, promises, pretending, is exposed by the reality of what truly is and is not! Years ago the defenders adopted a phrase which at the time signaled our arival on the scene! Today that prase is still the measurement by which all are compared! If you are a defenders player (current/alumni) and you do not recognize the phrase it’s perfectly alright. That just means you were not a part of the foundation but instead the benefactor of their sweat, sacrifice, and commitment! Their battle cry was and still is today, “It’s Time 2 Represent!” For those who have not made the necessary commitment to skill development, you will now be exposed! For those who made the commitment but did not honor the path/process, you will be exposed! For those who made the commitment and honored the path/process, you will now expose everyone else! If being great is your dream then now is when you make it happen! Let’s show all that being a member of the defenders was the best thing to happen to your game!

No excuses, just get the job done!  Best of luck to you all!
