She ended up making one basket but so many of them were sooo close. Something to practice this week.

She got my short genes.

Yeah, the girl guarding her this week was shorter than the giant from last week.

However, she still had a tough time getting it around her.

I always try to get a picture of the score before the game is over. Sometimes they will erase it as soon as the game is over so I have to be quick. Today, the score kept changing within seconds.

Final score~ Rebecca's team won!

I was so proud of her! She played really hard and didn't let the height difference intimidate her this week. It's too bad her daddy didn't get to see her play. He stayed home with Emily since she has been running a fever. We were pleasantly surprised that Jay's dad, John's wife and mom (great grandma to Becca) were able to see her in action today! Thanks guys for coming!!!
