so after a weekend that was a LOT loonnnnnnger and more exhausting than it needed to be (yes, i'm complaining a little bit... and for no reason, really, because i wasn't even playing in the tournament), OUR BOYS ARE THE IISSAC BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS!!!! and girls got second place!!!
reasons why this is important.
1. only 3 players on our 13 player boys team are NOT seniors. meaning this is probably our last chance in awhile to win the tournament.
2. six international schools from all over java and bali came to our school this weekend for the tournament. not all the schools are Christian schools - in fact, only two of them are. both our girls and boys teams did an awesome job representing Christ on and off the court. and they kicked butt at the same time.
3. our boys ALSO won the IISSAC (indonesian international small school activities conference... or something like that) soccer tournament. they've brought us home TWO trophies this year!
4. we almost won last year, but one of our best players (this year's mvp) broke his leg in two placess during the semifinals. it was kind of gross. it was good for all our senior boys to finally have that win!
5. me and the sophomore girls i was sitting with almost screamed our lungs out during the championship game. that alone is reason for why we should win. we were the loudest.
i am so impressed by our students. they are awesome at life.
