Morgan played in two basketball tournaments this weekend! Including the games played on Saturday, we had 9 ballgames in 6 days! Friday night his team played in Eagleville (almost Iowa) in a 5th grade tournament and Saturday afternoon his team played there in a 6th grade tournament. We were the only school to have virtually the same team in both tournaments and our boys placed 1st in the 5th grade tournament and 2nd in the 6th grade tournament! Not too bad for a group of mainly 4th and 5th graders (and one 6th and 2nd grader!)
I've posted pictures below of the two teams. Notice that most of the players are the same. We had a 6th grader for the 6th grade games, and some of our 4th graders played only in the 5th grade games!
Maggie managed to wiggle her way into a sleepover with her papaw and cousin Aubrey Friday night. My dad and his wife were at the games and had my niece for the night and Maggie managed to invite herself to spend the night as well! The girls had a blast together!
Well, that is all for now. This will be a much slower week as Elementary basketball is over! What will we do with the time we have? I'm sure we'll find something!
The 1st place team in the 5th grade tournament!
The 2nd place team in the 6th grade tournament. Marshall and his friend Jakub (both little brothers of players) managed to wiggle into the picture as "managers" of the team! They are both future basketball players in training! Notice the long faces, they played a good game, but were discouraged at the loss. No one was real excited about me having to take the picture!
