Jonathan Law’s former football coach, Mr. Robinson, is now coaching this year’s Powderpuff team. He takes over for Mr. Kulenych, who coached the team for the past eight years. With the game only weeks away, here is what he has to say about the team:

Emily Carroll: Who is this year’s strongest player and why?

Mr. Robinson: There’s not just one strongest player. Our returners are definitely our strongest players. Their leadership and the fact that they already know how to play is going to be a really big game-changer for us.

EC: How confident do you feel about the team, as a whole, working together?

MR: Very good. We’ve had (a week) of practice so far and they are already practicing like they have been doing it for weeks. They are doing a really good job. They concentrate very hard. They’re studying their playbooks. So, it’s going to be a good show.

EC: What is the team’s main goal?

MR: To beat Foran and keep the trophy here at Law. 

EC: What is your goal as head coach?

MR: My goal is to have fun and put the best experience we can out there for the girls. And to keep the trophy here at Law where it belongs.

EC: Who is managing and how are they helping the team?

MR: Elyse Velky and Kristine Frank are managing. They do the attendance every day, they hold onto papers and make sure to hand out all of the forms that I have to hand out. They are pretty important, too.
