Picture if you will. Tuesday night. JV basketball against our biggest rival. We are undefeated going in. The game is going either way by no more than 6 points at any time….
40 seconds to go, we are down by one. THEY have the ball. We foul them, they miss the free throws. THEY get the rebound. We foul them, they miss the free throws, WE get the rebound. Coach calls time out.
14 seconds remain. We inbound to Heather, she misses, WE get the rebound. Coach calls time out.
4.9 seconds remain….. the air is so thick you could cut it with a knife. Our undefeated record on the line. ASSUMPTION on the line. (We don’t like them J)
The coach gives the girls the play. We inbound to Brittany (great shot).
She misses.
ALLIE (DD) AT POST - REBOUNDS, SINKS THE SHOT. THE BUZZER GOES OFF. WE WIN BY ONE POINT!
You would have thought that we won the NCAA national championship. Our side line erupts, the girls run to the court. Every parent should get to see their child go through something like that. It was AWESOME. I have never seen my child be able to do something like that before, and it's a feeling i cannot describe to you.
