John and I were up by 6 a.m. and on the road to Matt's house by a little after seven. There we picked up Rachel and her friend and followed Matt, Sara, Sam, and Hanna to Crookston for today's games. Hanna's first game was at 9 a.m. and was a real nail biter with Hanna making a free throw to tie the game. Each team went on to score another basket with seconds left and we had a tied game at the end of regulation play. There was then a two minute overtime which Clearbrook won by a couple of points. (I'm really not sure of the exact score, I watched so many games today, everything has sort of blurred together.) The girls went on to win their second game and that gave them a bye so they didn't play again until 3 p.m. in the afternoon. With such a long break between games, we all drove over to Subway for lunch and then wandered around Wal Mart to kill some time. We still had about two hours until Hanna's next game, but decided to head back to the college and watch some of the other teams. Unfortunately, the girls lost their third game which placed them in the bracket for playing for third place. I am happy to say they won that game and the team received third place medals for their efforts. Matt coached the girls and did a great job even though he was pretty nervous before the first game.

John and I had a great time today watching Hanna and her teammates play--hard to believe we will be doing it all again tomorrow to watch Sam's tournament.
