Journal entry 1: The question remains -- will the Louisville Cardinals men's basketball team become a victim of its previous success? It is very difficult to have an equally strong performance for two consecutive years in the NCAA tournament, particularly given the 'one and done' rule which results in such high levels of team turnover.
Journal entry 2: Louisville has had some impressive victories thus far this year but against comparatively weak teams. This may hurt them in the tournament and lead to overconfidence.
Journal entry 3: Everyone celebrated Kevin Ware's fortitude in coming back from the broken leg that he sustained during the Duke semifinal last year. Now it seems he will have to redshirt the season after being re-injured in the leg. Sobering to reflect that sometimes being a great player isn't just about skill but the ability to come back from an injury.
Journal entry 4: Russ Smith has really grown as a player this year, compared to his performance in the previous year's tournament. He has always been one of Louisville's best players but now he is much less selfish about sharing the ball. Not only does he make great shots, now he also assists in making great shots.
Journal entry 5: The Kentucky-Louisville rivalry is one of the most historic ones in college basketball. Also, Coach Calipari and Coach Pitino famously hate each other on a personal level. This will be interesting to watch 'play out' this year, given that Kentucky is much more competitive this year than it was during its 'rebuilding' last year.
Journal entry 6: Louisville was victorious over the Temple Owls but should have had an easier time of it. Their next game against the Memphis Tigers will be a true proving ground to demonstrate what seed they are worthy of in the NCAA tournament.

Basketball Game Coverage Sports If I were to imagine myself as a sports journalist covering a basketball game, I would want to provide coverage for games that take place during "March Madness," a term used to describe a competition among NCAA universities for champion standing. March Madness is an annual event that is as much of a sports tradition as it is a media and journalism tradition. Covering a game in NCAA March
Basketball, more than any sport played on a major scale in America, characterizes the plight of Blacks in their struggle to acquire equality as a race. Basketball has proven to be an area of society where Blacks have not only obtained equality but have managed to demonstrate a remarkable superiority. On the confines of a small competitive surface, Blacks have exhibited their talent, their creativity, and their physical energy. In his

Motor Development Coaching Girls Basketball Experiment The purpose of this experiment was to conduct a muscular fitness test to access the upper and lower body strength of female girls who are on the basketball team. Muscle strength can be thought of as the amount of force that an individual can exert in a single muscle contraction which can be accessed through circuit training.

Scully and Noll dispute that the dispersion of victory could be calculated by evaluating the real performance of a group to the performance that would have happen if the group had the greatest degree of competitive equilibrium in the logic that all players were equivalent in playing potency.
