Super 100 National Champions

While Wes and Keagan were wrapping up the weekend in Indiana at soccer camp, Evan and I were at the AAU Super 100 National Championship in Georgia. Different states. Playing sports. Our life.

After winning on Saturday, Select had a bye for the Sunday early game. That meant we didn't play until 4:40 and we had hours to kill. So we visited Carter's Presidential Library. 



It was really informative and the gardens were beautiful. The work of the Carter Institute -  providing medical care to people in third world countries with preventable illnesses - was highlighted with this sculpture.



After a trip to the mall to shoe shop (the only way Evan would ever step foot in a mall), we finally made our way to the gym to play basketball. The first game was against Mike Miller's team - a very strong, fundamentally strong team. After recovering from a 13 point deficit, we won by a point. Evan had a steal with 48 seconds left that led to a basket and the lead. With 12 seconds left, he fouled out.




In the championship game, we overcome a 11 point deficit to come back and win 65-56! There is so much talent on this team - it is pure joy to watch them play together! As high school season begins, they will separate and play for their respective teams. We hope next spring to see them back together again.



Atlanta Super 100 Nationals Champions! What a wonderful accomplishment, boys!
