The "Lady" Tigers 2009-2010of St. Margaret Mary Catholic School
2nd Place Basketball Tournament.
I was trying to think of something to say here. But words have escaped me on this one.
This has to be one of the finest hours for these very special young ladies. Their school is a
small school, with small classes, so there is slim pickings for basketball, volleyball or any other sport. Luckily they can join with other schools in the same situation and come together to
make an absolutely awesome basketball team. This team was made up of St Mary's and St Joseph's schools. They didn't know each other to start with, but they came together as a team, and to watch their teamwork was an incredible sight. There was no one person that carried the team, they worked together and made it happen. They played in the championship game today, and they came farther than any other 8th grade girls team has come in a very very long time. They played on Thursday evening and lost their first game. They had a 20 minute break and they took on another team, and beat them big time. They were tired and sweaty, but they finished in the top two in spite of the odds. I guess it all comes down to playing with heart and soul, and it didn't hurt that they had an awesome coaching staff. God bless those girls and all the fans that supported them. St. Margret Mary Tigers were just SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!!
