Coaching points
- As the ball sweeps across the top, the other top middie cuts to the open space in the middle and the crease middie rotates out away from the cage.
- Carrier: your first look is the cutter, your second the crease middie rotating out. If neither is open, roll back and throw it back to him.
- Crease middie: as you rotate out, know that you are an option.
- In the 3v3 drill, run at least three rotations before anyone dodges to score. A lefty sweep runs the same rotation the other way (Kaley and Donovan).
