Not LeBron Yet

Align Center
Many times I have reconsidered naming my blog ESPN- DeForest with the amount of sports reporting that I seem to do. However, this winter was a little quiet for sports. Our main focus was a basketball team that Brendan was involved in. He and a group of friends practiced twice a week for a few months to take part in a tournament team.

Here is Brendan at an earlier tournament.

They played in three tournaments and many other small scrimmages. The tournaments usually began around 8 or 9 in the morning, and we would still be gracing the bleacher seats around 3 or 4. The last tournament of the season was a few weeks ago when Chris' mom was in town for Spring Break. And this was their best tournament of the year.

The boys played four games total. They lost their first one, but then went on a winning streak. Maybe their momentum came from the way that they spent their free time.
Video games and candy galore!

After their third win in a row, the boys placed third and were rewarded with trophies. They were giddy!

He may not be LeBron yet, but that smile is worth LeBron's salary to me. . .
