Last Sunday, we went to the Women's Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Gophers basketball game (at the Williams arena) to watch Carl's cousin, Kamille Wahlin play. We had such a fun time! I swear, every Adolphson across the state was there to cheer on Kamille. We all met at Applebee's before the game and basically took up the entire restaurant.
Kamille started the game at guard (as a freshmen!!!!) and played an awesome game! She had 8 points (2 three-pointers) and many assists and rebounds. It was pretty amazing watching a family member playing at such a high caliber of basketball (Division 1 - Big 10). . . we all knew she was an unbelievable athlete, but we were all still impressed by her skill and composure.
Family wasn't the only people to come out and support her. Her Crookston (probably around 40-50 people) fans rented a charter bus and drove up especially for the game! Talk about support from your home town!
Even though the Hawkeyes lost in the final minutes by only a few points, the game was amazing and we were all extremely proud of Kamille!! :)
Side note - Carl and Joice got to go down to the locker room before and after the game (we've got connections). Jocie got her favorite Hawkeyes to sign the poster she made, and Carl got to sit in Tubby Smith's desk :)
