Game 1

Due to the distance I had to cover I was a little pressed for time. As usual, it seemed like I was catching every red light, etc. Most of my traveling was on the interstate, however, once I got off and got through all the red lights I thought I was home free. I was wrong. Came across a crew working on the railroad lights. My first thought was here's a train and now I'm going to be super late. Luck would have it that they were just finishing up so I got to my game site on time.

The game went fine. We had a pretty tight first quarter, but after that Team B just turned it up. They ended up winning 52-32. Really smooth, I got to work with two good partners and we enjoyed our time out there.

Game 2 is tonight. I'll report back probably sometime tomorrow on how it went.

No high heartbeat rates, no sweats during that ride to the game, right?

Glad it went well - hope tonight is just as fun.

At least you got to work; I was supposed to work tonight but last night's games got postponed to tonight, so I won't be working. Then the AD just e-mailed and said there's a chance Wed's games could also get postponed due to the weather forecast, pushing the championship game from Thursday to Sat. morning. Sheesh.

Might of had a few at the beginning of the ride. Just I just tried to relax and enjoy the ride. Didn't try to think about it too much other than it was just another varsity girl's game on a Monday. Worked pretty good.

Good luck...it was 75 down south yesterday...what kind of weather are you all getting up there? Either way, it sounds like the white stuff and you can keep it all up there!

Hmm...if you think he was nervous last night, just think what he would feel if he knew there was a reporter there with nation-wide exposure ready to chronicle his every call.

(Yea, I'm thinkin' about it. )
