Tourney Time

Some of the most exciting times in my athletic experiences were basketball tournaments. Once the sub-region and region tournaments were done, we moved on to face teams that we didn't usually see during the regular season. I never played college basketball, so maybe I get more excited about college basketball tourneys than they are due. On the other hand, what could be more exciting than having the entire season hinge on the game currently being played during a tourney.

You had said that you did not play collage ball,well I did not even play high school ball.but I really enjoyed going to our games.Since I was part of an all male school the cheerleading squad was of course all male.I could not play ball but i supported my teams you gessed it a cheerleader.I had a grand time and I would not trade that experence for any thing,well almost any thing,if I could have played I would have.I had the height but not the co-ordination.
