Basketball

Basketball is an extremely physical sport.  Somebody on our team always gets hurt every year!  This year I am hoping to break the chain.  Our team has the potential to go very far if we just work at it.  And when you work for what you want, you'll go as far as you let yourself. 

We had a tournament in Richfield this weekend, we played two games, Milford on friday and Bryce Valley Saturday.  Let me just say Friday was a bit rough.  I know it was our first game of the season and let me tell you, you could definatly tell!!  Our defense was so lazy and lax, out offense was rushed and sloppy, it was just.....rough.

Saturday night came around and we were ready to play.  Just as nervous as the game before, we all huddle up and say our chant.  I felt different.  I felt like it was time to show our fans that we are better than what we showed them on Friday. 

The whistle blows, MT jumps, the possesion is ours.  We make our first basket and hustle back on defense.  Everyone could already tell the difference in our team already.  As the game went on the score stayed a pretty close but in the end we lost by ten.  But that is AMAZING because they have been in the state championship game for like 4 years in a row!  We worked our tails off, and it paid off!
