After school was the first home game of the boys' basketball season. This means kids running all around, tons of tempting treats for sale, families to greet or meet, a cramped gym filled with chatter and excitement, and oh yeah, three basketball games going on.
They played Lodge Grass, another Crow team, and it was actually a pretty good match up; from what we've seen, Pretty Eagle teams tend to dominate at everything (to the point where it actually feels sad for the other team), so the intensity was exciting. I sometimes forget I'm not watching a high school team! The girls team was the same way- they are inTENSE. I've never been a basketball fan or anything, but it was really fun sitting in the stands with families and cheering on our students.
And oh yeah, I'm also helping out with cheerleading now. (The coach saw the 2nd grade girls' dance in the Christmas Show and asked if I would do a dance for the cheerleaders- I just started teaching them one this week, but it's been fun!) It's just about 12 girls 4th-8th grade that cheer at all the basketball games, nothing too intense, but I think it's nice that they have it as an option to do something fun and try it out.
Fun times at Pretty Eagle!
