GIRLS’ BASKETBALL
I was once told, “If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting.” I hope that’s true… My Name is Troy Gillespie and I coach at Westside High School. This is my 7th year at the school, and I have been the head coach for the past three seasons. In the past three years we have had a lot of success with a record of 90-20. We have won two district championships along with four tournament titles. In two consecutive years we advanced through four wins in the play-offs to finish as the regional runner up, and then last year we qualified for the play-offs again. Also, during the past three seasons, we have placed NINE full scholarship athletes into a college or university, along with three other non-scholarship basketball participants. This season we return 7 varsity lettermen, and our expectations have never been higher. Each and every day, we strive for excellence on the court and in the classroom, as we try to out work all challenges. With every passing moment I am trying to better my team, my students, and myself for a future full of intangibles.
