got me into basketball, because he loved it so much. He really just showed me the way throughout my life. I played lots of sports for fun when I was younger, but nothing as seriously as basketball.”

Her high school experience with the sport has been fun and positive, with several notable highlights. During her freshman year, she earned all-county honors. Her team, the Blue Dragons, also won conference that year. Her senior year was marked by triumphs, as Agunzo scored her 1,000th career point in a game against North Shore back in December. She also achieved the honor of Conference Player of the Year as the season wrapped up.

Agunzo really enjoyed working with her team this year. “The team was great. We were young but had a blast all year. We’re all hard workers. The practices were great, we played hard in the game no matter what. Shots weren’t always landing but we played hard no matter what.” The team was unique in that part of the season featured four Sophomores starting with Olivia, and another part of the season featured three Sophomores and one Junior. Most of the team was underclassmen, but this did not stop the fond – and competitive – bond that formed between them all. “It was definitely a little competitive, but it made everything better,” Agunzo said. “We made each other better. Our bond was amazing, and I had a blast all year, and I hope they can say the same. It was really fun to compete with them on the court.”

So, what is next for this phenom of the court? Agunzo has committed to play for

Saint Leo University in Florida, a Division 2 program. The senior is most looking forward to the challenge of college ball, and is ready to push herself in college to continue her legacy of achievement. “I’d definitely love to win the championships at Saint Leo, maybe become an all-American. Just continue to enjoy myself and have fun on the court.” during

Agunzo has followed some pertinent advice which has helped keep her head up during a challenging season.

“No matter how you’re feeling that day, if you have practice or a workout, you’re already there, there’s nothing you can do about it, so just try your hardest, give it your all no matter what.” workout, there, hardest,

By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You want what another person has, but you wouldn’t give up being you to get it. You’ll give up envy and gain energy, plus the knowledge that your goals can and will be accomplished in your own way, and in your own time. You will love them all the more and know they are enough for you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). ere are those who see each insect as a pest and others who see each insect as magni cent and weird. You’re able to swing from one mind to the other on this and any issue. You can appreciate things for what they are, but your perception and reaction shifts radically once a thing invades your territory.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some truths have to be sni ed out, dug for, quested, but not the truth you discover this week. It’s right in front of you, and you don’t even have to be very aware to notice it. If you miss it the rst time, you’ll trip over it the next. It wants to be known by you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It occurs to you that you have it pretty good. Sure, you could think of 10 ways right o the top of your head to have it better. But with your poetic perspective, you’ll see how the banged-up parts of life, relationships and your material surroundings are quite worth cherishing for their beautiful imperfections.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t prefer to work under pressure, and yet you can’t help but notice how good you are at it this week. ings get done quickly, not despite the stress but because of it. Furthermore, you’re able to wrangle amazing deals because a quick buck is appealing to all.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). e work is fascinating and it goes quickly this week, especially the work you’re not exactly supposed to be doing. But you’ll get it all nished -- the side projects as well as that which you’re duty-bound to -- and make friends in the process. People admire your fairness and you’ll be called on to mediate.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). e trick to getting the important things handled is super simple: Schedule them and stick to the schedule. You won’t want to do the thing when it comes up on the calendar. Do it anyway. ere are uncontrollable things happening to and because of us. ere are storms inside us that ripple out, and events miles away that resonate at our core. It’s a day to respect the wilderness and control what we can.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Balance requires wisdom. When you are in the heat of a di cult part of life, you counteract the stress by going easy on yourself in your downtime and prioritizing your own comfort and care. But when life is coasting along, you seek challenges in your downtime to keep things interesting. You’ll strike the most healthful equilibrium this week.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Simplicity and frugality are not so di cult to pull o this week. ese qualities are what’s needed to gather enough resources to execute a big plan for the future. It also helps that you don’t really want to impress anyone and there’s nothing to gain from showing o .

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). For someone to act in accordance with the greater good, they have to notice and understand what that is. You will be adding friends to your fold this week. Be on the lookout for bright minds, big hearts and observant people with a social conscience. When you align with these types, you can achieve much good together without much e ort.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). e task at hand seems daunting, but dive in anyway. With your gracious communication style, people will be delighted to help you. A few excellent questions get the ball rolling. You don’t need to know everything; you just need to know enough to get to the next step. Bonus: Your prior experience is more related than you may have guessed.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Outreach will be your success key this week. Freshen up your connections with a check-in phone call, or throw a party to enliven your social swirl. Ask friends for introductions and talk to people you don’t know. e more people you tell about your dreams and schemes, the closer you’ll be to making them true.

Contract Bridge

Date: 3/22/23

By Steve Becker

The Root of knowledge

contract — “slightly optimistic,” Root observes — seems hopeless, since South apparently must lose a heart trick and a trump trick. But declarer can prevail with careful play.

After taking the opening club lead with the ace, South leads the jack of spades from dummy. This is done, Root points out, in the hope of inducing a napping East to cover the jack with the queen or king from a holding of Q-4 or K-4, in which case declarer’s trump loser will disappear.

In the actual case, this bit of practical advice does not pan out after East’s queen is taken by the ace and the king does not appear. But South still has another string to his bow — an elimination play.

There was probably no betterknown bridge teacher than Bill Root. For nearly five decades, he taught the game in schools and private clubs in New York and Florida as well as on the high seas, consistently attracting upward of 100 eager participants to each session.

Prior to his death in 2002, several of Root’s lectures were recorded for home viewing and may still be available from bridge supply houses.

Today’s deal is from Root’s taped lecture on endplays. The six-spade

At trick three, he leads a diamond to dummy, then ruffs a club and cashes the A-J of diamonds. (Alternatively, he can also cash the K-A-J of diamonds and discard dummy’s club.) Now comes the key play: declarer cashes the A-K of hearts before exiting with a spade.

As South had hoped, the defender with the king of spades — West in this case — started with only two hearts and so is forced to return a diamond or a club. This allows declarer to discard his heart loser as he trumps in dummy, and the slam is home.

Tomorrow: Test your play.
