The Rock Hill YMCA All-Star's almost did it! We came in second place! I know we all like to win, but you can't win them all. We started out with our first game on Saturday morning at 8:30 am. Not only was that hard on the boys, it was very tough for me! We lost that game, but luckily it was a double elimination tournament and we got to play again at 11:30 am. We won that game and had to play at 2:30 pm. We were really playing well at this time and won that game to go on to the championship game at 5:30 pm. By this time every one is tired...players, coaches, parents, and me! Also, by this time Ashley has pretty much lost his voice. The boys give the championship game a valiant effort. They came back and took the lead with only four minutes left in the game. Only to run out of gas and get second place. They truly played their little hearts out for four games. I know I could not have done it! Everyone was so proud! One of the parents offered to buy all the kids and the coaches pizza before going home. It really was so nice and I don't think the boys worried about losing once they heard about the pizza. Ashley completely lost his voice. I think he finally regained it Tuesday afternoon. I put him on a no talking ban for Sunday and Monday, but I am not sure he really listened. All in all it was a great weekend, just a really long Saturday. I spent 12 hours in a YMCA watching basketball in Anderson, SC.

One last team huddle
The WONDERFUL Coaches...Kyle (l), Ashley, Drew (r)
I just found out that Ashley does read the blog and I need to make a correction. In the previous blog, I stated that he coached the wrong age group. He has always coached 9-1o year olds and 11-12 year olds. My bad!

haha, that is funny that 'you just found out he reads the blog'. I remember the day Chap let me know my first mistake too.
Congratulations, that is still so awesome! I can imagine the emotions were high, and I'm proud of you for not going to A-Town County Jail this weekend =)
WOW! That is a LONG FREAKIN DAY! I wasn't sure when this was, so I'm sorry I didn't ask about it when we say you. Congrats to Ashley and the team! You probably couldn't pay me to play that much basketball all in one day, much less watch it. Congrats to you too B for stickin in there, you supportive wife, you! :-) Great job, guys!
I meant, saw you.
