An End to Basketball Season




Hank's basketball season is officially over.  He played on two teams this year and had a blast with all his buddies.  He is shaping up to be quite a baller and so fun to watch.  His ball handling skills are impressive and he is really perfecting his ability to pass and create good shots.  


The above team is his Jr. Jazz team that Randy coached.  Team Dominators, did just that in every single game.  These boys played with so much intensity and improved drastically from last year.  They really took it to all their opponents.  It got a little embarrassing at times.


He also played in a competitive league in Salt Lake on Team Warriors coached by Morgan Bingham.  Since they played older kids in a more intense league they had to play their guts out to keep up.    


Their last game was against a team they played on week one. The rematch game was a huge improvement from the 25 point loss the first time they played.  They ended up losing by 4 points but they had a chance to win it.  You could see the confidence in these kids faces. Such competitive boys, holy cow!   I can't wait to watch them play together for years to come. 


This is my attempt to get a picture with Hank after his last game.  Max decided to photobomb!



This post-game photo has to be one of my all time favorites.
Three generations of ball players!  Hank had great support from his family this season. His grandparents are always there to cheer him on as are his aunts, uncles and cousins. 
My dad really got into his games this year and only missed maybe one or two games. 


What is Hank going to do now that basketball is over?  Ski!!  We have a few more weekends of good snow and before baseball starts.  Hank is really shaping up to be a great little skier.


I just need him to convince his little brother that skiing is awesome!

I'm not sure what I love more...Hanks hair in his team Jr Jazz pic or his little helmet mug soaring through the air skiing! Stud.

Think you're gonna need entire books dedicated to Hank's athletics!
