Last night was Austin's third game of the season. All I have to say is wow. Austin was amazing! Because of their age bracket, the kids play 8, 5-minute periods. This allows for equal playing time among the players. Yesterday only 9 kids showed up so one child would periodically have to play back-to-back periods. Austin was one of those kids because he was on fire! He shot those long arms in the air to get the rebound. He tussled with kids to get the ball when two or more of them would grab for it. Most exciting of all, he shot three baskets. I was holding my breath for his first attempt. He ran in for the lay up, then paused to take his shot and he made it! The crowd went wild! Okay mostly the fan club seated in our area (Tom, Drew, Trevin, Jason and Courtney) but the crowd did cheer. It was his first basket of the season and he followed it up with two more. He was awesome. Even the coach asked what we fed him for dinner. We were all so proud and he finished with being awarded player of the game.
Great Job Austin. You were great! That's my boy :0 )
