Graceketball

This Saturday morning at St John's. This will be the third annual and Grace's third year of participation. She'll be coming straight from her Lady Lions practice in Bayside. Grace raised $240 this year. Thanks to everyone who supported her and donated! That's around $950 over the three years she has participated.

Played a great game in Brooklyn on Saturday. Met her teammates for the first time, got nice minutes, scored, passed well, had fun. The girls are all quite good they were all playing defense and they move the ball very well. That's what it's all about! First game in Bunky Reid will be tomorrow. She has a 7:30 with the Lions and then an 8:30 with Greg Meyerhoffer and the Glen Cove girl's varsity. That's been going well and I know Grace appreciates the opportunity. Coach Mayo is having her work with the second unit and show them how to run plays etc.. She likes it and it gives her an opportunity to stay in touch with her friends and former teammates. It also gives her time in the gym as well as some limited game time. Hopefully the Lady Lions will work out for GraceAnne and she'll have an opportun...

Sundays are J days. J is Jason Hernandez. Very nice group of girls have started to come together every Sunday at 11:00. This past Sunday they had a friendly but intense workout, playing 4 on 4, 3 on 3 continuous, running drills and developing their skills and IQ.   Stone, JT, Wood, Hooch.... Could be a very special group of girls.
