Well . . . . That's that I guess.

After being ranked number one in the state most of the season, and being touted as the best team in both 1A and 2A schools in Colorado, Rissy's team is out of the tournament. They were 20-0 going into last night's game against the #4 team in the state. They beat them by 20 points a couple of weeks ago. But, last night was not their night. Sad little girl . . . .

There are a lot of things that are so unfair and "politics" that have gone on . . . . but life just ain't always fair - and I guess basketball is just as good a place to learn that as anywhere else.

She's hoping to play ball for Southern Virginia University. I didn't know anything about it until a couple of months ago - but it sure sounds like a great place to be, and if the basketball thing works out, that would be icing on the cake as far as she's concerned. She really wants to go there. She goes out in March for an open house/basketball/volleyball tryout . . . . so we'll see. Abby Baxter is a Junior there this year . . .

  4. That's why they play the game.
    I have always thought VA would be healthy for her. One reason being is there's a mountain of members.
