The End

Colton wrapped up his freshman basketball season tonight.
Colton and his partner in crime Chip goofing around before a game. Colton and Chip have been playing sports together non-stop since the beginning of 8th grade, and off and on before then. They sweated it out together in freshman football and then both made the freshman bball team 3 day later. This friendship is super important to Colton. Chip is his only good friend that is an athlete like Colton. He is also a good kid. We know when Colton is with Chip they will make good choices. Sorry, back to basketball.
It's been a long season for Colton. He hasn't gotten to play much and has been super frustrated. As a parent, it's been excruciating to watch. We can see that he has so much potential, he just needs the right training. He didn't get ANY from his coach. We are so proud of how Colton handled this trial. Even though he was super frustrated, he never missed practice. He worked hard, and was dedicated to his team. He can be proud of himself. So now we look ahead to next year, and try to get him some personalized training to see if we can unlock some of that potential. I'm just glad it's over. I need a break!
