I didnt say much at the get together because what most people might not know is I am an emotional person and I could not get out what I wanted to say. So now that I can write it down. Dimitri has been a vital part to the success we had this year. He has been there through the good days and bad days of coaching. When we didnt play well he was the first person I called when I got home to discuss things with and also when we celebrated great victories. I know I am the head coach but I see Dimitri as an equal who brought great value to this team. His calm demeanor added to my sometimes crazy demeanor balances our team out. I dont know how many games he kept me from being kicked out of games. I hate that he is leaving because the girls really responded to him and really enjoyed him being around. Dimitri will be missed but I know he has great things ahead of him and I wish him all the luck in his new endeavors. I not only consider him a good coach and trainer I also consider him a good friend. Good luck my friend!!!
