5th grade girls last night--one of the young ladies' left arms is a prosthesis from just above the elbow. She scored a couple of buckets and had a couple of rebounds.

Their principle warned me of her before the game. Apparently during their previous game, her prosthesis fell off during a rebound attempt. The girls on the other team all froze while this girl grabbed the ball and scored!
That's one I've never seen,even though I know somewhere in the book it says it's OK if the state authorizes it.I think I would have tried to blow my whistle to kill the play when the arm fell off,if I wasn't too startled.Then again.....?When you think about it,she did a heckuva job getting the rebound and putting it back up with one arm.Great story,Bard.
