District Tournament Time - Part 2


I'm sure if you were within 100 miles of the Marsh Valley gym you heard the Cardinals scream for joy after the victory over Grace. For those of you not close enough, I'll fill you in on last weeks events. We played West Side on Tuesday night for the District Championship game. We didn't do too bad, but not what I thought was their best play. We lost by twelve - it was closer that a few times, but they just couldn't pull it out. That set us up for another game against our closest rival Grace. Not a good thing - we beat them the last 3 times we played, but the last 2 games were very close. Trying to beat a team 4 times in a row is almost impossible - so back to Marsh Valley on Thursday night to play for a spot at the state tournament.

Sorry Mara, but I'm stealing from your blog - we both took pictures of the scoreboard over and over. This collage tells the story of the game:
Yes, the last picture shows the 6th period - you got it now, DOUBLE OVERTIME! I told Seth all these gray hairs on my head are from the close games they have played lately. Here is a little video with the final buzzer:



It was just too close for comfort - take a look at Seth getting his metal:


The Team:
2nd at Districts - how'bout 1st at State!!!!!!
