Best Sports(??) Photo. Ever.

I love this picture. It's another one taken by our esteemed photographer, Mark Going.

Hilarious. Finn and I have analyzed this. You all know 10-11 year old boys think stinky things are quite interesting. Hmmm., who "did it"???

Video 5) Missed shot, with a solid Wildcats rebound. Wildcats slow it down; take their time to set up a play; then, draw the foul.

Game 7, 2013 Season, vs. AL NE Fire

LA WILDCATS 40, AL NE Fire 29
Game Date: February 16, 2013

The Wildcats played perhaps their best basketball with an almost flawless (for youth basketball standard) half. Halftime score was 29 -12 and everyone contributed by rebounding, shooting, passing and great defense. The second half was another story as our opponent made some adjustments, playing with more "fire" and forcing the Wildcats into some reckless turnovers. The score tightened up but the victory was never really in doubt as the Wildcats notched another victory.
