Baby Doll's Tournament, Part 2

As promised, I am back to finish telling you how the tournament ended.

Saturday morning was so cold! Thankfully, the drive was short and soon we were getting settled at the Jetty. There were four more games of pool play before the actual tournament.

We came out in a 3-way tie for 1st and point spread slipped us into 3rd place. That meant the silver division.  

There was so much sitting around. One of the courts was an hour and a half behind! They finally got moving and after a bit of a struggle, we finally beat them.

That put us in the championship round. Curly showed up to watch as did Beauty and The Beast and their boys.

The final game was easier than the others and we slid by with a decisive win and a gold medal!

A very good day.

Baby Doll's First Tournament

Baby Doll finished her season at Bingham, and started right up with Club ball at GSL. She is basically on the same team she was on last year with about half of the same girls. The other half are new.

She had her first tournament of the year starting on Friday. Thank goodness this one was close. Our first pool play games were in Lehi. It was only about 30 minutes. As we were driving, we drove right past Trove where Sport works. So I called him and he came down to watch one of her matches. He was pretty impressed with her level of play.

She is #24 again this year. It was my jersey number from high school basketball. It's awesome that she chooses to wear it.

Pool play consisted of 4 teams and they played matches with 3 of them. We were there from 3:00-10:00 after she had most of a school day! They came in 2nd in their pool which was good news since it meant they would play on their home court at the Jetty in the morning.

More tomorrow...
