Alumni B-ball

Here's some video Bridget took from my alumni basketball tournament last weekend. We did awful.

As we get older, we get less and less people coming back in shape, and yet they keep stickin us in pools with some of the best teams because we have consistently been one of the best teams.

Not this year.

This year we last all three games in pool play. In our first game, we had 26 points. Total. 6 were because they were 6 years younger than us, 15 I scored, the other 9 guys contributed 5 points. It was a great way to start the day.

The next game was worse.

The third game we actually only lost by like 8, but that's because our former Edgewood College player, Maier, finally got his shot going and hit 6 threes in a row. If he hadn't, we would have lost by more than 20.

On top of all that, I taped up my right ankle due to a minor sprain 2 days before, and ended up taking off about an inch by quarter inch piece of skin on the back of my heel. A week later and it still hurts to walk with shoes on.

But it was still fun. =)
