We made one last trip to the valley for Morgan's basketball tournament. We have been to Eugene and Corvallis 4 times in the past 5 weeks and we are all ready to be home for a while. While all of the tournaments have allowed our team to play other great teams, this tournament was by far the most difficult for them.
The team had made a name for themselves, and everyone was gunning for our guys. Other teams knew who they needed to shut down, the 3 big guys down low and our coach had to work other offenses into the game in order to get points on the board.
Our first game against Corvallis was a nail biter, they wanted to beat us and they worked hard to do so. But in the end, we came up with the win. (It didn't help that that game started at 8pm)
In the end, our boys came out on top and won the tournament by playing some great teams and awesome basketball. We are some mighty proud parents. We still have 2 weeks of basketball left (7 games).
It will be bitter sweet when this season is over, as this is the last year that they will all play together on 1 team. They are currently 31-2. Next year, in high school, they will, most likely be split up onto the Varsity, JV and Freshman teams.
I have a story about Morgan and his blood sugars, but will post it later.
