Minden on the right track

Talked to a handful of Webster Parish basketball people today. The fruits of these conversations can be seen on Page 2C of Friday's editions of The Times.

It seems Minden girls coach Devoderick Ridley has his team headed in the right direction. He's preaching chemistry and teamwork, not individual play.

He wants his players to be well-rounded and it seems they are.

The record (7-11) is something Ridley said is deceiving. What wouldn't be deceiving would be to see Minden work its way into the Class 4A state playoffs.
