Upward Basketball

I did not realize that it was cold enough to snow this past Saturday, but I was proved wrong. 
At my sister's baby shower, the hot topic was the pending snow forecast and how we need the snow to kill the germs that is keeping everyone sick around here.
Not being a fan of snow, I was not thrilled to look at the window above the door at Rebecca's basketball game and see big, fat snowflakes falling.
I was happy to see the snow had stopped and melted by the time the game was over.


Rebecca's team (in orange) played very hard.  They started off with a player short, making it difficult for them to get the breaks needed.  They play 4 on 4 and only have 6 players on each team.  It is imperative that each player be there for the game, but sometimes, things come up and someone is missing. 
Anyway, with a player short, they did a great job holding their own.  They were pretty much tied much of the first half.  During the second half, one girl was injured and now has a fractured arm :(  This caused the girls play a little more cautious.  All in all, they lost 22-27 I think.  I personally believe that they played their hardest, making their coaches and parents proud, considering the shortage of players and injury.
