Valdez Basketball Tournament

Last weekend, Austin participated in and I chaperoned a basketball tournament in Valdez.  It was nice to get out of town for the weekend!  Austin had a great time and played really well.  His team only won one of four games, but he scored 29 points in the four games.  Austin is a very physical player and very fun to watch!  I didn't take pictures at the Junior High basketball awards, but his coach gave him the Most Inspirational award.  Coach said that when Austin is on the court, he gives 110% the whole time and that his team mates would do well to follow his example.  Anyway, at the Valdez tournament, Austin and one of his team-mates, Cameron, won All-Tournament awards.  All-tournament awards are given to the players of each team whom the coaches think would form the best single team from the tournament. 

Oh, and the view from the ferry was beautiful!  Enjoy!

This was the three point shoot-out.  Austin made eight three pointers in one minute.
