State Finals

Morgan's team played in the consolation bracket on Thursday night for 3rd and 4th place. They let the girls out of school early at 2:30, so we could get on the road. The last 30 minutes of our drive was in snow! My Dad was able to come to the game because he was heading up to Downers Grove for the weekend to help Ross out with the boys while Erin was in Rochester.

I didn't get many pictures, but here are the girls warming up before the game.

In the second half, Morgan got taken out by a girl on the other team. She hit the ground hard! The refs called it a flagrant foul and Morgan got to shoot two free throws by herself. She was able to shake it off and move on with the game.

The girls couldn't pull off a win, but finished in 4th place in the state for 4A 7th grade. Such a great accomplishment and so proud of how hard these girls worked! A lot of these girls have played together before on their travel teams, but this was the first time Morgan has played with most of them.

The drive home was a little dicey! For most of the way, it was snowing hard straight at us and there was snow on the highways! It had snowed the whole time we were in the gym. We made it back to Downers Grove, where it hadn't even snowed at all. Go figure!
