IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week: A local pastor said, “The only thing that spreads faster than fire is gossip. Gossip destroys individuals, teams, coaches and friendships.” The environment you live in (home) and practice and play in (school) can be directly affected by negative viewpoints and untrue rumors (gossip). Are you capable and can you encourage your teammates to take the high road? Stop gossip early by controlling your own actions and words. Unity wins over gossip every single time!
