Thanks to goofing around with her Brother the other day...Careline is currently sporting a swollen and bruised nose. It doesn't bother her though, and in fact, she was almost glad that she had it today for her first basketball game of the year...Here's a quote from our little sports start..."It'll make me look tough and scare the other team!"
It should come as no big surprise that she is a good little basketball player. She's just one of those kids who is naturally gifted in whatever sport she tries...which I'm sure makes it more fun for her to participate and definitely makes it more exciting for us to watch. Even though she is the smallest one on her team by far, Coach G has her playing the all important Point Guard roll because she handles the ball so well and makes good wise passes. It's probably going to take some adjusting on her part to be comfortable with assisting rather than scoring, as in soccer she's so used to being the top scorer, but I think she'll perform her roll well and come to understand that setting up the play is just as valuable as making the basket.
The Packers won their first game of the season by the score of 20 to 11.
