State Basketball Play-offs!!!

OK, so our high school b-ball team was lucky enough to be in the play-offs for state! We had to win all three games, otherwise we'd be out. We faced a team that was 30-0, verses our 28-2. Obviously they were undifeated, but we had some tricks up our sleeve.

So it was going great in the first half, even if the opposing team's crowd was cheering way more than us. They were behind by about...fourteen points or so.

Then, in the second half, things started to turn ugly. I'm not mentioning any names, but number 52 was so huge and monsterious and got ALL of the rebounds! It seemed like he literally camped out under the basket, waiting for a time to strike! A sign--I think it was his dad or a relitive--even said, 'Feed the 52 Beast!' It was kind of weird.

Well, we turned out to loose, 53-79. I think our team lost it's flame, because they were on fire in the first half! Well, anyway, we were out. Thankfully, in the state tourney with our opposing team and another play-off winner, our opposing team LOST! I felt a little better, just to give them a taste of their medicine. But, I have to admit, they were pretty good and did unexpectedly well.

Keep reading and comment literally whenever,
