Game Faces





Several extended family members met at Sandpoint Middle School gym fka Sandpoint High gym last night to watch Willie's JV team take on Lewiston.
It was a tough game for the Bulldogs; some of their regular players had been promoted to varsity and some were new players.
From the looks of this morning's sports section, the JV's loss of players was the varsity's gain, as Sandpoint defeated Lewiston.  
Congrats to Tyler and the varsity. 
While watching Willie's game, we provided a cheering section of sorts---with a little foot stomping and a lot of yelling.
The JV game was okay in the minds of several young cousins from Salt Lake, Bellingham, Tacoma and Plummer. 
Nevertheless, they were much more keen on action at halftime and after the game.
Finding some balls to bounce and listening to a word or two from their older cousin Coach Love, they played a little full-court pick-up ball. 
Teamwork was sketchy, at best, but the players managed to get the ball up and down the floor and even dump a few balls into the basket.
Of course, the greatest part of any high school sporting event comes from the concession stand, as Jacob demonstrated while watching Willie's team.
Kidz had fun, and adults enjoyed visiting and cheering. 
For family, it was an overall win, to say the least.
 Life returns to normal today with the week's worth of company headed home.
We hope they all arrive  at their various destinations safely. 
Happy Sunday.
