Basketball Awards

Tonight Justin’s basketball team went to a party to celebrate the season and eat pizza. We ate a a local pizza house that gave us a room and waiters.

Everyone on the team started at as newbies. At the very end of the season they started playing as a team. They moved the ball down the court, got rebounds, captured the ball from the other team, kept the other teams from scoring-- all the things they had been taught by coach (and dad) Tad. Their first win was the last game of the season. In the tournament they won two of three games in round one. In the second round they won another game, finishing in fourth place.

Grant's Basketball Game

Grant had his second basketball game. He sure can get up high and capture rebounds.

The first half of the game the Mustangs are working together and playing hard. The score is close. The second half I think I can see their brains go into overload with all of the new things they are learning, not to mention they are getting tired from running up and down the court. The other team has two really good players that they use 99% of the time so our guys can’t score as much, but they sure play hard and stay positive.

Tad is the coach and seems in his element. Both coach and boys have mutual admiration for the enthusiasm each shows, and the parents are great—they want the kids to have fun and learn. Go Mustangs!
