PlayUpLate

A peak into the evening of Cory

I went to ClubSport at 8 for a good time sponsored by Rolling Hills. It turns out Rolling Hills rented the entire club for the night. That church is frickin rich. It was really fun watching Michael Bauer shoot hoops in his get-up for reasons I won't go into. Audrey's really good at volleyball. And now for the heart of the story:

The 3 on 3 basketball tournament. My team, being myself, my brother (who's not much taller than me, and a friend (who's not much taller than him), was the Mormons. I was hoping there could be a losers' bracket cause if it was single elimination i thought we might get screwed. The Rebel Penguins were ok but we out-hustled them to make somewhat quick work of them. the next team we played was the Giants. one of the guys was like 6'7". they had the height advantage every match up. we out rebounded them! we were better rebounders who worked harder. we beat the friggin GIANTS! for the championship game we played the T-wolves. they had a pretty big guy. but our sharp shooter (this guy nailed threes from way beyond the NBA regulation three-point line) kept us in it. we were down 8-9 when he hit the three, and we threw our arms up in victory for our first championship after many 3 on 3 tournaments.

PS. before he hit the three, we all agreed it'd be win by two so the final score was 12-10 them but the rules said game goes to 10.

A very winning day for you. Seeing as though our soccer team won 3-2 also.

Oh yeah, and Jesuit won three state championships. Volleyball and both men's and women's cross country.
