Summer CYO
GraceAnne's Summer League CYO team, the St Hyacinth Storm, won their final game last night to go undefeated for the summer season. Congratulations to all the girls and parents for working so hard and achieving such an outstanding result!
The team won last night's game in a 30-9 blowout. The opposing team wasn't all that bad but they seemed to get intimidated quickly by the smothering defense and the fact that Storm jumped out to an early lead. The Storm had beaten them the last two times they played in pretty competitive games so maybe they became disheartened. Grace played well with only six points but fourteen rebounds, two blocks and three steals.
In this clip (about 5 minutes in) Grace gets fouled after beating her girl in a clear-out and taking it to the hole.
She is also enjoying the Pro-Hoops camp... though sometimes you wouldn't know it. This in spite of being on a team with only one former AAU teammate and a pointguard she describes as an unapologetic ballhog (They're 10, aren't they all ballhogs?). The team she faces each and every day consists of 5 of her teammates from AAU. Grace says the coaches are mostly kids that sit around chatting and texting. She complains a bit but it's probably good for the girls to work things out themselves. She does say the stations and individual instruction is very good and that she gets a good workout. I know she comes home tired.
