It's Game Time!

Jocie had her first basketball game EVER yesterday! The Monticello 4th grade traveling team took on the St. Frances Xavier team from Buffalo. We didn't know this going into it (not that it would have mattered too much), but this team was compiled of 4th, 5th, and 6th grade girls! To make matters a little harder, this would be the other team's LAST game of the season compared to our FIRST game EVER :).

The game was very fun to watch. Jocie played point guard, and did a great job calling the plays and being the leading DEFENSIVE force on the team (remember - she is a Lundby!) The girls got great exposure to what a competitive basketball game is really like. From the first quarter to the fourth quarter; we all saw improvement. We were very proud of their 34 to 10 defeat.

Coach Adolphson also did a outstanding job! Not only did he stay positive while the team trailed, his excitement and enthusiasm never faltered! If I had a cooler of Gatorade, he would have been drenched after the game :)

Looking forward to many more games!
