Blue-Gold Day

Ok, the first thing I have to do is apologize because we had a great Blue-Gold Day yesterday and I DIDN'T take any photos or videos......what was I thinking....obviously nothing at all?!?!

So you won't see the incredible dunk by our big guy David Palmer when he had a former player throw the ball off our track on top, let it bounce down to the floor, then thunder it home for a perfect score of 40!  Although he actually got a 42 since Coach Washburn gave him 12 out of 10!

And you won't see the 3-point competition come down to the last shot between Brian Heinle and Anthony Papini, with Brian winning by a point.

And you won't see the overtime scrimmage between Blue and Gold that brought out the best in both teams.  Heck, they even made everyone wait to eat dinner so they could break the tie in overtime!

And you won't see the dinner we had afterwards with family and friends showing up to meet the team and get to know each other.  Plus you won't see the 4 Strickland kids running around like crazy trying to be part of all the festivties.

But even though you won't see any of this, you gotta believe me when I tell you it happened!! I couldn't make that stuff up!! haha

I promise I will be better in the future and you will see more photos and videos.....from all of us!  Just chalk it up to a coach still figuring out all this blogging and tweating business. haha

First scrimmage Wednesday.....our guys are pumped and so am I!  I will report more after we get our first taste of real competition!
