RAIDERS WIN!!!!!!

It was a BIG DAY today for Abby and her Rice Lake Basketball League Team, the Raiders--they won their very first game of the season!!!! The most interesting part of this win, is that they only had FOUR girls that showed up for today's game, so they played the entire game with the same four girls, and none of them got any breaks!

This was the scoreboard at the end of the game...
(the Raiders were the Guests, the Cardinals were the Home Team)~~~
Abby's friend, Leila, who is on her Barron Basketball Team, was on the opposing team today. Abby had to guard Leila. As you can see, there was a bit of a height difference! It didn't matter, though--Abby even managed to "stuff" Leila once! Of course, Abz ended up on her behind after the "stuff", but she did it!!!

Bringin' the ball down the court...

Taking a shot...

Giving it her all to get the ball to the hoop!

There are three girls from Barron that play in the Rice Lake League. Today, Leila pointed out to me that all three of the girls wear a number FOUR on their basketball jerseys! These three girls are also players on my Barron Basketball Team.
Here are Abby, McKenna, and Leila...
The Three Fours!!!
Only two more weeks of Rice Lake Basketball left. Next weekend, Abby and I have our first Barron Baskeball Tournament in Chippewa Falls! Andrew is also in full-swing with his school basketball--his first game is this Tuesday!

Have a great weekend!
