A Night for Smiles

 



It was a good night for Coach Love. 

Wins are always nice.

They all make us smile.

And, smiles were plentiful at Ugly Sweater Night during last night's game between the Sandpoint Bulldogs and the University Titans from Spokane, Wash. 

It was a return home of sorts after more than a month's drought of home basketball games for the girls squad. 

In addition to friends and family gathering with Bill and me behind the team, we were all smiles at the end when the scoreboard read Sandpoint 64 - University 54. 

Another win for the Bulldogs, bringing their season record to 5-2 and ushering in a few days off for Christmas and then a return to action at a tournament in Spokane after Christmas. 

It was a fun evening, filled with lots of good visiting and, of course, a welcome win. 




These Bulldog teammates are out of action for the season due to injuries, but they participate with the team every way possible. 

Below:  the gallery of regulars who love to come and watch the Bulldog action.

We Love's all appreciate their presence. 








I learned last night that this nice young man in his dapper Christmas suit is the grandson of a former student. 
 




Bob, who works the scoring table with his grandson, always gets his picture taken when I pass by.

That's his dad's name on the scoreboard.  The family has definitely put in the years for the Bulldogs.
  






A lot on the agenda today, so keeping it short.

The link below will take you to a fun and nostalgia-loaded column which appears in today's Bonner County Daily Bee.  

Enjoy. 



Happy Sunday. 

SMILE
