Area Champs...

The Lady Hornets won Area on Friday, Feb. 20th by beating Blum 41 to 43. This advanced the girls to the Regional Quarterfinals where they faced Aquilla down at Millsap. With a slow start the girls kept the game close and even pulled ahead to get a 10 point lead at the beginning of the 4th quarter however the wheels began to fall off. The final score was Aquilla 45 - Byers 43.

It was a tough loss for both the girls and Tony. He was up until almost 3am that night rehashing the game to see where he could have done something different. He is still bummed about it right now but give him a few weeks and things will get better.

Dotty is just glad that her DVD player will no longer be taken over to watch game films and she can watch Barney to her little heart's content. She was a real trooper through this ball season. It is hard at her age to sit still and watch a game but with lots of help from Nana, PaPaw, Payton, Julie, Jarrod, Patti, and many others she survived the season (and so did my sanity).

Thanks to all those who came out to support the Lady Hornets and Tony. We truly appreciate all the efforts everyone made. We enjoyed the season and we are looking forward to next year.
