Day Three of Clemson/ Day Two of USC Upstate

 I headed to Spartanburg today to watch Sis play a little basketball.  It took me forever to find the building she was playing in, so I only saw the last minutes of her game.  I didn't even see the scoreboard until it was over... her team won by three.... She made the last three points of the game... the girls worked together like I had never seen.... the next few pictures are of them during this game and the happiness on their faces for the win almost made me cry. 






 This is KB fighting for the ball... rolling around on the floor... amazed that she will do this!




 She got fouled and made the free throw! 



 And .... they won!!!!







 I caught the last ten seconds of the Varsity game....



 This is the beginning of the second game.... I love that the coach leads them in prayer before they play....
 And then... both teams got in the middle of the court and grabbed hands... and prayed... I had tears in my eyes because I think KB prayed for the group.... Wow....

 Varsity watching JV play.... so sweet


 Varsity girls headed to their game!  All smiles!
 And then it was time to head back to Clemson! 




 That little boy... in the navy Nike shirt... beyond tired... and the blisters on his feet make me hurt... his heart has been full of joy today... and full of sorrow... his team has won and lost some tough games! 
 And this one... he has had a good game today!  (and a bad one too)  We would talk about the refs, but they are the coaches of the Tiger team!  :) 
 James's tooth is so loose... I'm afraid it is going to come out when he is running and swallow it. 


 "Him so tide"




 James's tooth still hurts. 
 and it is still loose

James was "on time" tonight!  He made almost every free throw he shot! 

It's been a great day... but all good things must come to an end..... I have to work tomorrow.... I'm already homesick because I want to go back to Lincolnton tomorrow.... Spending the week in "hotlanta" is not my idea of fun!
