No, I was way over 21, around double.

Dakota,
Just make sure she knows the basics and I can't imagine she doesn't. I like the idea above about practicing mechanics to help her look experienced. More important, make sure she knows that it doesn't matter if every call is wrong in her first game. After a few, the coaches will give up.
A quick prayer is on the way.

Will her handle be "Little Dakota" or IceBlueTwo?
