Volleyball time

Mitchell made the freshman volleyball team!!! good job Mitch!! He worked really hard for this. He has been going to intramural practices for a few months getting ready for tryouts. He had his first game against Valley High School yesterday.... he started the game and played  great! He had a block in the last game that scored our winning point! Go Bengals! 

I need Linda to give me some volleyball mom lessons... I don't know all the rules and felt pretty stupid asking the guy next to me what all the calls were... I thought I knew volleyball pretty good... but it's been a long time since I played with rules.
My camera didn't like the gym... the pics are a little blurry.



Mitch and Bennett celebrating the win...

A funny side note to remember... Mitchell played the whole game against one of his former soccer teammates (Andrew) and didn't even notice him on the other side of the net. I saw his mom first thing and chatted with her, but the boys didn't recognize each other. I guess they were focusing on the game. Mitch was shocked when I pointed him out after the game!
