~:[CH3 - Day 364]:~ The Family
It was our final day in San Diego for the tournament and our final day with the whole group for the new year. Checking out and packing up is usually a challenge, but my car was ready so quickly and we waited as the other athletes strolled out of the hotel. We headed to Fashion Valley and while it was not a good day to be at an outside mall, we still had a good time. We headed to the gym to play a very structured Fallbrook team who was very good at running their sets. A few of their player played very dirty and the ref did little to handle those situations which led to a very chippy game. The foul count after the first quarter and a little bit was 13-5 but we kept ourselves in the game. We executed pretty well and played fairly well defensively, but couldn't get the ball to fall in the 4th quarter and fell just short. As we headed back, I knew there would be a storm, but did not know how bad it would be. Our drive back took awhile, not because of traffic, but simply because we had to slow down for safety. The rain and wind made it a challenge at some points, but thank the Lord that we made it home safely. While we ended up in sixth place in the tournament, it still was a fun tournament and we were able to overcome some of our challenges early on to make the progress we hoped for.
