Elle's Basketball Season Ends

Gabrielle joined a new basketball team this winter and it has been great to see her enjoy the sport so much more and to see her improve so much. Most of the girls on her team have played together for several years and also play on her Athletica soccer team and most of them (including Gabrielle) have decided to continue playing basketball (along with soccer) for the spring season. Her team, comprised mostly of 4th graders, played in the 4th grade YMCA league and went undefeated. Gabrielle usually scored a basket, sometimes two, each game but where she shined was in her fantastic defense, steals and rebounds. Here she is in the last game taking (and making) a free throw. She didn't take many free throws during the season (maybe four total) and this is the first one she made in a game...

 

Here's her team enjoying Dairy Queen after their last game (missing Aliyah, Lindsay and coach Tod), notice Genevieve on the right smiling for the camera as well :)...
