Well after a very tough week already things dont seem to be getting better. We had a game monday against Richfield and I ended up in the Emergency Room with a knee injury. Well I've been hoping that it would start feeling better so that i could play in our tournaments this week but that probably isnt going to happen.
Well at lunch to day it was brought to our attention that it was published in the newspaper that Jesse and I would not be playing due to our injuries. The article is below. You know up until now I never realized how much sports actually meant to me.
Richfield, Dietrich girls aim to cement dominance with state berths
It takes just two more victories for the Richfield girls to win the Northside Conference, but Dietrich could have one last chance to knock off No. 1.The Northside tournament begins today at Dietrich High School with Bliss, Camas County, Magic Valley Christian and Carey battling it out for a shot to upset either the Tigers or Blue Devils in the semis. The top three teams will receive berths to the Class 1A Division II state championship tournament in Nampa."Definitely, Richfield is the team to beat," Dietrich coach Acey Shaw said. "They've proved it through the season. They're beatable, but we have to limit turnovers, and our field-goal percentage has to be around 40 or 50 percent."Richfield (20-0) is led by Teenie Kent, who has averaged 18 points per game and four steals. Michelle Kent has put up more than 11 points and six rebounds, while Shasha Kent and Lea Piper contribute more than eight points per game. Piper leads in rebounding with seven per game.The Blue Devils (15-5) will get the other first-round bye. Senior Jesse Dill leads the team in multiple categories (16.8 ppg, 7.9 rpg, 2.3 assists, 2.6 steals), but sore ribs suffered during last Monday's game against Richfield may limit her playing time. In addition, Halie Stoddard has a tweaked knee.These two teams could face off for a third time, but No. 3 seed Carey could be a roadblock for the Blue Devils."We beat Carey twice," Shaw said. "But they've got athletes and could very well beat us."
Well the only thing I have to say to my team is good luck and I will be there cheering you on the whole way. Bring it Home!!!
