WE WON! WE WON!!

We had a great basketball season.

Both boys loved playing.

Both boys did great in their very first 'organized' season.

We had a great coach.

::thanks Chuck!::

And, in the end, in a 'David and Goliath' type game

(we were the 'Davids', for sure!)

we won!

It was a simple testimony to what a

never-say-die attitude can accomplish.

The boys were behind the entire game,

right up to the 2 minute mark.

Was this mama yelling?

Yep.

Was this mama covering her eyes as Jarrett shot free throws?

Absolutely.

Was this mama almost moved to tears for the team?

You betcha.

It was fantastic!

Halftime score ... I know we were behind by 10 at one point in the game ...

Halftime strategy session!

Final score!

Gotta love Sam's ... the cookie cake was delish -

the grammar on it was horrible!

The 9-10 year old champs ... left to right:

Jarrett*, Will, Sam*, Nathan*, Josh, Blaine*, & Jack*

* indicates first year playing

Chuck always gives out his own awards ...

Blaine's was

Jarrett's was the 'dribbler' award ...

Jarrett knows he likes to dribble & drive!

One last 'MUDCATS'!!

Yes, it was late and they were not really excited in this shot ...

the adrenaline had worn off!
