šÆ COACHES SPOTLIGHT: Lyndsey Walters
Sport: Volleyball
Coaching: this is my 3rd year, first as a co-head coach
Why do you coach?
I love being able to share the love I have for the sport with some very talented girls. I enjoy being able to go to practice and see them on both their good and bad days.
What is the biggest lesson you want your athletes to learn?
I want them to realize they are more than just who they think other people see them as. The world tends to be really hard on teenagers and it is so easy to doubt yourself, I want them to be able to realize that they have so much potential in both sports and in life.
Favorite coaching memory?
This one is hard because I have so many favorite coaching memories, but I would say winning WTC. These girls work so hard every day and are so competitive. That day everything was clicking within our team and it was such a fun atmosphere for both the girls and us coaches.
What makes Mitchellās student athletes special?
Mitchell student athletes show up every day with great attitudes and are willing to put in the time and effort to help themselves develop. They are the biggest supporters for their teammates and demonstrate what it is like to be a Mitchell Tiger!

Coaches Spotlight!
šÆ COACHES SPOTLIGHT: Traceten Halley
Sport: Varsity Boys Basketball, JH Assistant Football, HS Assistant Track and Field
Coaching: Head Coach 1 year experience, Assistant 6 years experience
Why do you coach?
I coach to hopefully have an impact on our athletes the same way my coaches did for me which is to help build resilience, be a part of something bigger than yourself, and unlock their full personal and professional potential through grit and hard work and lessons along the way. I want athletes to understand there is more to being on a team/playing a sport than ājust a gameā.
What is the biggest lesson you want your athletes to learn? Teamwork or a group working together will always be stronger and bigger than just an individual. This also applies to daily life, not just sports.
Favorite coaching memory?
As a basketball assistant at Norfolk High School for my own former head coach Tony Siske, we were the last seed in all of class A districts and missed a last second shot to beat undefeated and eventual state champion Bellevue West @ their place in the district final.
What makes Mitchellās student athletes special?
The culture of competing and having the drive to push each other even when things get tough so everyone will improve.
