home court

this weekend we had our home basketball tournament

we started the tournament playing andover

last year they were our biggest rivals

this was our first time to play them this year

we walked away with a win

39-30

AND

ben got a nice surprise

when his teacher showed up to cheer him on

following our andover game

we had a few hours off

so we decided to hit pizza ranch as a team

after seeing the amount of food

and some of the incredibly random (and gross) combinations

that went into some of their bodies

i am amazed that they were ready to play again

BUT ...

they bounced back

and played a great game against elk river

for the first time ever we beat them 

31-24

which put us in the championship game against westside

they were a very good team

and pushed us

but we stuck with them

unfortunately ben ended up on the bottom of a pile up

somehow we got called for a travel on this one instead of a jump ball?!?!

you'd think we were playing football

he took a foot to the head

had to get checked for a concussion

and ended up out for the rest of the game :(

sam had gotten hurt on the play before that

so we were looking like a sad bunch

we ended up losing 27-20

but walked away with 2nd place

and no concussion ;)

way to go 5A!
