Lost in the third round of States Basketball.

 What a rush!!!!  The Warriors went from one win after the next this entire season and we couldn't be more proud of how they respresented our school and the team!!!  These young men ALL deserve metals and trophies and a round of applause!!!!

Matthew and Tim were the team captains.  I loved watching them play the game together!  They really passed and shot well!

Mike was out of town all last week and he was so disappointed about having to miss this game!!!  We have learned to not plan any vacations during the month of February and March!!!!  The two months we have always loved to go south and get away from the winter cold.  Basketball has stolen our hearts though and we were at every game possible!!!!

Matthew made the newspaper a few times now.  The first time with golf.  And now basketball!  What a great athlete!!!!

This was the third round of STATES!!!!  We drove to Martz Hall in Pottsville to watch and cheer our little hearts out for the Warriors!  It was a heartbreaker when the game began and St. John Neumann scored right away and it took us a little bit to get a score on the board but the boys played so well!!!

They played such good defense!!!!  This opposing team was good and we were showing them just how good we were too!!!!

And the little fans joined the party once again!!!!  What a ride they will remember!

Love these little people!!!!

We caught up and the gymnasium went crazy!!!!  It was so loud in the there with the fans cheering so much!!!!

Matthew had a blast playing and he was really feeling the rush here when they took the lead!

So much pressure to play their best.  To play hard defense!!!  Every shot mattered at this point!!!!

Coach did so good with these boys and they learned a whole lot under his program!

Look at all the fans!!!!!

We lost the game at 60-50.  Only by ten points and even though we would have loved to win again and move on to the next two games, the boys were so proud of how far they got!!!!  This St. John Neumann is a fantastic team and they are fast, have energy to the end and we met our match!!!!

Good job Warriors!!!  I will forever be your fan!!!!!!

Such good spirit!!!  Our last two games were 1 1/2 hours away and both games were filled with fans!!!!

Hadassah and Jer gave Matthew a hockey jersey and he was so happy for it!  Matthew has had an incredible year of basketball and played really good!!!!  

We are so proud of you Matt!!!!

GO WARRIORS!!!!

See you all next year!
