Situated in Milford, Connecticut, Jonathan Law High School's cross-country team is gearing up for another promising season. Led by head coach Joe Beler, the team is looking to build on their previous season's success and continue their growth as a cohesive unit. In this exclusive interview, Coach Beler shares his insights on the team's top returning players, new additions, schedule, and his coaching philosophy.
When asked about the top returning players from last season, Coach Beler highlights the team's overall improvement. He stresses the importance of constantly striving to be better and believes that this mindset is what makes his team stand out. With a determination to improve every day, the return of these players will be crucial in leading the team towards success.
As for the new players, Coach Beler has high hopes for Matthew Berendt, David Licktieg, Matt Montini, and Carl Wischow. These new additions have shown great potential during practice sessions and are expected to make an immediate impact on the team. Coach Beler acknowledges that their skills and dedication will be valuable assets to the team.
Team chemistry and camaraderie are crucial aspects of any successful team. Coach Beler understands this and has a plan in motion to ensure that the team gels well together. He believes that providing leadership to the newer members and leading by example will help build a strong and united team. By creating a positive and inclusive team culture, Coach Beler is confident that the team will showcase their camaraderie on and off the field.
The team's schedule for this season is filled with tough opponents and exciting games. One of the challenges that Coach Beler faces is having a team without a middle school feeder program. This means that he will have to train and teach the new athletes how to run a 5k. It will be a challenge, but Coach Beler is confident that with hard work and determination, his team will rise to the occasion.
As a coach with years of experience, Coach Beler's style has developed and evolved. He believes in constantly adapting and catering to the team's specific needs. When asked about his coaching style this season, Coach Beler states that the team will be facing tough competition in the Southern Connecticut Conference (SCC).
He adds that he is looking forward to the 2nd annual Milford Championships featuring Law, Foran, and Platt Tech, as it will be an exciting opportunity for the team to showcase their skills and determination.
