Fun Friday: "Who Knows Their Coach Best" Part One

The men's basketball team and women's soccer team are the first to tackle the final Fun Friday challenge of the semester with the "Who Knows Their Coach Best" challenge.

ABOUT FUN FRIDAY
With no sports being played this semester at Slippery Rock, we wanted to give teams a chance to have a little fun and show some competitive spirit, so we asked teams to sign up to participate in a number of challenges that will take place on Fridays throughout the fall. Points will be awarded in each of four challenges, eventually leading to a “Fun Friday” fall champion in late November.

CHALLENGE #4 of 4: “WHO KNOWS THEIR COACH BEST CHALLENGE”
Five teams signed up to compete in the “Who Knows Their Coach Best” challenge, where three players from each team will join their coach in answering 10 questions about the head coach and their preferences. The goal is for the players to try to correctly guess how the coach will answer each question. Teams will be awarded 400 points for each correct answer. The men's basketball and women's soccer teams will be the first to tackle the challenge Nov. 13, followed by men's soccer, field hockey and volleyball wrapping up the challenge Nov. 20. 

WHO KNOWS THEIR COACH ENTRIES
- Men's Basketball: Head coach Ian Grady with Lashon Lindsey, Amante Britt and Bobby Clifford.
- Field Hockey: Head coach Rayell Heistand with Taylor Border, Courtney Page and Jordyn Isner.
- Men's Soccer: Head coach Kevin Wilhelm with Mo Kanani, Alejandro Fernandez and Hayden Seifert.
- Women's Soccer: Head coach Jessica Giegucz with Emma Yoder, Kayla Swope and Jordyn Minda.
