Run-n-Slam Basketball Tourney

Friday evening saw Mom, Dad, Nancy and Matthew headed to Ft. Wayne, IN. We arrived at the Spiece Fieldhouse for Matt's 8:00 pm team meeting. His first game was Friday evening at 10:30 pm. The first 3 games they played were pool games and determined your seeding in the tournament that started Saturday evening. They were 2 - 1 in the pool play. The tournament began Sat night with a 9:30 pm game. They won and went on to win three more games. They got to the Final Four on Sunday afternoon and lost in the semi-final game by one point. The cool thing this is a 2013 (8th grade) team and they were playing up in the 2012 (9th grade) division. They ended up 4th out of 32 teams. It is a very demanding weekend for the players and Matt was up to the challenge. Matt is an ace at the free throw line.
