8th Grade Basketball Team

Courtney decided to try out for the 8th grade basketball team at school. She had never played on a school team before, but really enjoyed playing on the church basketball team. She was surprised at how many girls tried out for the team - at least 25. Only 12 girls made the team and Courtney was excited to be one of them. Lloyd was excited too since basketball is his favorite sport. Courtney had a lot of challenging practices and her team played a good season. They came in fourth in their final tournament. Courtney always played left wing. She enjoys playing team sports. She is our sporty, yet humble girl.

Courtney really liked her coach, Mr. Granger, who is also her math teacher. Courtney got an A+ in math so he must think Courtney is pretty talented.

The games move so quickly it was hard to get great shots. The games were fun to watch though.

Great job, Courtney!
