Lex had her 1st volleyball tournament at Alexandria yesterday and it made for a long day!
We had to be there at 8:30 and didnt leave until around 4:45!
The girls played hard.............but whew....they need some team bonding!....and learn how to move their feet!
They lost to Ohatchee up first and they blew them out of the water. In retrospect....Ohatchee played 9th and 10th grades when technically it was a 7th, 8th and 9th grade tournament. {That Coach is a scumbag.....we all know him personally} and they went on to win the whole tournament.....which was not right....but they let him play who he played....soooo....
then up next, was Faith Christian. They beat Faith! Both teams were aligned. They were all the same age and playing level {along with all the other teams} so it was a great game! Tyler also was line judge! He did an awesome job! Lex played! She had some great passes. Missed a couple.....but overall, she played well when she was in!
Next was Oxford. They lost first round. Won the 2nd round and then lost the 3rd round to them. They didnt play as well against Oxford as they did against Faith....but they won the 2nd round which was awesome and then was a point shy of winning 3rd. It was a bummer. It knocked them down with their confidence...{us parents could tell} Alexis played in this game too! She did good. Her nerves seemed to have gotten to her some.....and the feet NEED to move....but she was excited to get to play again!.......then they had a break and we relaxed and had lunch for them...
and then last game was Springville. Well.....because of the crush from Oxford....and the break....they just didnt even show up...it seemed like at this game and got crushed. It was painful to watch! :)
All the girls enjoyed spending the day with each other...and thank goodness I like the parents because our cheering section was strong! We cheered...we shook the poms....we kept the team going! ha!
We hit a thrift store and Mexican before coming home to crash! Today is full of Church and then Tyler and I are doing school work! Yep...its that time again!
Waiting for their turn to warm-up!
