Tues
at MCC 5:00 Tuesday we played against M.C.C. third and fourth grades. We won 24-9 in the second half. They were smaller than us so they had a lot of speed. They used team work and all that. We used team work too. I made another long shot from three feet from the three point line. I had a lot of fun at the game. ~Hunter E.  Additional Writing
Mar. 18 Wed at Brethren We had a game at Brethren and we won. It was another close game 24-20. Caleb got fouled out but he played a great game. We won the game in the last two minutes. I made one basket in the game. I had fun at the game. ~Hunter E. More Writing

at Brethren They also won the Consolation Bracket against Brethren on Sunday.  ~Coach Clarke

On Sunday we played Brethren in the last game of the constellation bracket. We won so we came in third in the tournament we were all excited. We all played a great game. I had fun playing till some of the team started to yell at me. The game ended up to be 28-17. When we have to shoot free throws we could go closer to the basket that was a bonus. I had fun at the tournament I cant wait to do it next year. ~by Hunter E.

 We had a game yesterday. It was awesum. We won a trophy. I had a great game. ~Ethan. H.

Last night we had a basket ball game. We had lost that night :( I'm pretty mad. That was the first game we lost this season. I was hoping not to lose a game this season. Well we can never win or lose at the same time so I guess last night we lost. I had fun last night. ~Matt H.
