Dallas Academy has eight girls on its varsity team and about 20 girls in its high school. It is winless over the last four seasons. The academy boasts of its small class sizes and specializes in teaching students struggling with "learning differences," such as short attention spans or dyslexia.

What does learning disabilities have to do with basketball? How are they being set up for failure? Bob "Butterbean" Love couldn't even read and had a severe stuttering problem and became one NBA's greatest players.
Granted, I wouldn't have put the full court press on a team that can't put the ball in the basket. There is no need unless the winning team had the intent of blanking them. I probably would have pulled all of my starters before the end of the first half and played my scrubs.
