Coach Hopkins' Basketball

PHILOSOPHY

The Oakland Christian basketball philosophy was developed and is implemented with two major focuses. -RAGING FIRE and LANCER BROTHERHOOD - Raging Fire comes from Matthew 5:14-16. We are to let our light shine. As Lancers we do not just want to shine, we want to be a RAGING FIRE! Lancer Brotherhood comes from Proverbs 17:17, and it deals with the strength of a brother in the good and bad times. As Lancers we need to guide, protect, encourage, and keep accountable our fellow teammates as a brother would. We are the LANCER BROTHERHOOD!

Lancer Brotherhood

Proverbs 17:17 - A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.

Raging Fire

Matthew 5:14-16 - “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Creed

A Lancer goes into battle expecting to be hit. Becoming a Lancer is not for the sheltered, weak-hearted, or cowardly. It is the legacy of those who come prepared to compete with their all.
