LAMAR Ladies Win.....!! Close call......

Ever since BB returned to playing basketball, her shot has been off just a little! She is one of the 3 pt shot girls........I still see her playing 'safe' and still hesitant.....with the knee brace on. She leans to her right leg more for support/balance instead of trusting her brace, but they will come over time. Anyway this has caused her shot to be off to the left side.

Friday night she tried so hard trying to get her 3 pt shots back on. They were so close, but just not in. Cedarville girls played us hard, they would be up by 6 then we would go up by 6......until the last 2 minutes of the game. We were tied up in the game. We had position and killed about a minute off the clock when Coach called a time out. We got down to about 20 seconds when Cedarville tipped the ball out of our girls hands, BB went after the ball to help us keep position when B had the ball long enough when the defence girl tripped her, both girls fell to the floor with B hanging on to the ball by a tread, Coach quickly called time out, which was 6.1 seconds left on the clock and game tied! When we threw the ball in, they were short on time, when B got the ball and new her time was limited she shot it with 1.2 seconds left on the clock, the ball seemed to hand in the air forever when the ball ripped the bottom of the net for a 3 shot....put us ahead 51-48 and the buzzer went off, EVERYONE was standing and yelling! BB I guess was warming up during the game to make that all important shot at the end to win the ballgame. She played really good defense! Hustled very hard, stayed aggressive. She had a total of 8 pts and I lost count of her rebounds, she had a lot, I am proud of her trying really hard to bet back her game!!
