Camryn had her first Middle school basketball game tonight against Stephens Middle school. Unfortunately we lost(27-34). The good news- Camryn got to sub in twice. She played the last 2+ minutes in each half and scored the last basket of the game. I have to admit I teared up when she made her basket. Camryn plays the same position as the best player on the team( a 3rd year player who is very good) so I wasn't holding my breath that she would get playing time in the first game. Her first time in she seemed a little intimidated and played very cautious. The 2nd time, she came out in true Camryn form with a 1 shot attempt that made a beautiful SWISH sound.
Of course I brought my camera but didn't check the battery. It was dead of course! So no pics of the game. But I did get a few pics at practice yesterday. Here are my favorites.
Running Lines
She usually stays an extra 20 minutes to square off against the assistant coach. She has a lot of fun doing this and gets her more comfortable having much bigger people in her face.
Here is the team huddle at the end of practice. She is in the middle with her teammates all around. The one behind her is almost 6'2".

That is awesome! Those girls are mighty tall on her team. That has to be intimidating for her. Way to get over that in the 2nd half though. Rock on Camryn!
