Fillies hoops is exciting because as soon as the corral gates open the stampede begins: shooting, rebounding, defending, running. I want to provide an entertaining opportunity for Freshmen Filly fans.

Last year I followed the political frenzy and named our plays after conservative Republicans: Boehner, Palin, Rubio, Ryan. During a scrimmage one opposing coach asked me about the names. He responded with a play called Obama. It failed. #obvious

This year I'm still using the same plays but the theme is confessional Lutherans: Luther, Walther, Melancthon, Wilken, Schwarz, Borghardt, Harrison and Bakker. The Fillies like to run, defend, run, press and run some more. Taking a suggestion from my colleague, Mark Felten, I named our press Gutenberg. Ahhhh, the Gutenberg press. Classic. I don't have all the plays in so if you have a suggestion, send it my way. Serious suggestions only please. I have no time for Bell, Warren, Moore or Osteen. The theme is confessional Lutherans, not false prophets.

Thank you! This is flattering and fun! Hope the team has great success honoring confessional Lutherans...of course, if the plays do not live up to expectation, you will see that the theology of the cross permeates us! :-)
