2008 Basketball Champs!!!!!



I am really behind in posting this, as I was waiting for the pictures to be developed, but on Feb 26, 2008, our Men's Basketball team won the Tournament for our Stake. We came in with a 5-5 record, seeded fifth in the tourney, and we went on to beat the fourth place team, the first place team, and finally the second seeded team to win it all!! I told the team to gather for our team picture before the game started, because I wanted a picture of the 1st place team and also to show the other team we were ready to win and it worked because we won! Some of the guys said I was going to jinx it, but I just had a feeling, the same one I had when we did the same thing for softball, took the picture first, then went on to win, call it arrogant but I call it confident!! Although the picture doesn't show all who played with us this season, for the most part it is the ones who showed up the most. It was a great night of team basketball, as at the end of the first half we pulled away a bit and was up by 12 points. We came out in the second half, built up a 20 point lead and kinda coasted the rest of the way. We won by 9, but really it wasn't that close. It was probaly the best we played all season. Congrats Thornydale Men's Basketball!
