There are different eras

and generations,

but basketball is still the same.

Old school or new school,

the fundamentals of the game…

passing, dribbling, and shooting…

never change.

The styles and forms may change,

but from 1946 to 2006,

there’s been a right way and a

wrong way to practice and perform

these skills and that remains the same.

- Walt “Clyde” Frazier

 

It is most difficult in my mind,

to separate success,

whether it be in your profession,

in basketball, from religion.

To be a great player,

to live with the consequences

when the shots don’t drop.

Fill All My Vision, Savior, I Pray

Fill all my vision, Savior, I pray,
Let me see only Jesus today;
Though through the valley Thou leadest me,
Thy fadeless glory encompasseth me. 



 


Fill all my vision, every desire
Keep for Thy glory; my soul inspire
With Thy perfection, Thy holy love,
Flooding my pathway with light from above.

Fill all my vision, let naught of sin
Shadow the brightness shining within.
Let me see only Thy blessed face,


Feasting my soul on Thy infinite grace.

Fill all my vision, Savior divine,
Till with Thy glory my spirit shall shine.
Fill all my vision, that all may see

Thy Holy Image reflected in me.

Lyrics: Avis B. Christiansen

Music: Homer Hammontree
