2/7/2009

It is Saturday morning and I have a whole new spin on things. Even though the Columbus Grove boys basketball dominated last night I made several key contacts on the losing side of things. Crestview is the team we played, and they are probably the furthest school that we alternate trips to boys and girls. On Thursday night our girls team made the trek towards their school, so Friday night their boys traveled to Columbus Grove. In speaking with several of their players they were rather unimpressed with the makeup of our gymnasium. It is true that we have one of the more archaic arenas for basketball in the area, but that will soon make a flip flop. See...this last Tuesday our town passed a tax levy that will provide a new school, and that will include two new gymnasiums. It is best not to get too excited, because playing in the new arena is a few years away.
Today I will be venturing over to Findlay for breakfast, and then I will be attending junior varsity and varsity contests between girls teams at the tops of their respective Divisions. Liberty Benton is a DIII school, and that is where the game is. They host the number one team in DII, Bath, and that is the team that I will be cheering for. I spoke and/or gave a little extra motivation to the Bath girls on Wednesday, and this will be a good measure up to see if I did a decent job.
