Now that Falcon spring sports are in full swing, the only thing still left on the basketball court are the standings and stats. Coach Doug Ravasdy’s Falcons were a team on a mission this past year.For a new coach to implement a new system and have such a successful season is a compliment to both the coach and his players. From the opening tipoff at the first game, until the last shot during the playoffs, I felt there was great improvement with his club. It’s generally a difficult task to sell a different system of basketball when a coach comes in from an entirely different locale, but it seemed to work with this year’s club. The players and the coach are to be congratulated.When I first spoke with Ravasdy at the beginning of the year, I asked him about his expectations for this year’s club. He told me that winning the metro league would be nice, and he’d like to see how far in the playoffs they could get. In the metro league they were 12-2-0 – ending up second to Sierra – and were 17-8 overall. They went two deep in the playoffs by beating Pueblo Central in the first round of the state playoffs but fell to Greeley West in the second round; thus, ending their season.They put together a pretty impressive run at the end of the season by winning 15 out of their last 18 games. That’s a pretty good run in anybody’s book.
