Basketball Tournament

22 Oct - Sara participated in a basketball tournament in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins University.  They played 4 games and Sara played in all games and with the A team (oldest and best players) for 3 of the games.  She played very well for her first time in playing American rules and the court is a little different.  She fought for many loose balls and was the only person to draw a charge!  The team was rusty but won the first game by 11, the second by 43, the third by 23 and lost the last one by 16.  The WHOLE team collapsed in the last game.

She enjoyed it and proved she could play at the level of the girls here.  In the 4 games, she had 6 fouls and 6 points but she played great defense.  She played about 80 of the total 128 minutes of games.  We're ery proud of her doing so well despite not playing with the kids before.

Tryouts for the team are 7 November so wish her luck!!! Regardless of making the varsity or junior varsity, she will have a great time, represent her school as a RAM, and make friends on the team.

Sara is #45 in white jersey with the light blue pants in all the photos.
