Holy CRAP!
We just got back from Ryan's game and OMG I don't even know what to say. She was SO upset after Tuesday's game where she only scored 10pts. It wasn't so much the points (she was high scorer) but she just played like crap... and they lost. If I'm being honest I'd have to say she played the worst of the posts (centers).
ANYway, so today they really needed a win for their second district game. Without it they'd be in hot water. Ryan came out SCREAMING. 8pts in the first 2.5 minutes. But she also got two quick fouls so the coach pulled her, then put her back in mid-way through the decond quarter. 3rd foul right off the bat. Ridiculous. I could have chewed through the chair in front of me! So she sat until the start of the 3rd quarter. She didn't get another foul until almost the end of the game but she scored 29 points! If she's have made the one free throw she missed it would have been 30. I think her previous record was 23pts.
The Fort Worth Star Telegram Awarded her a game ball in this morning's paper. Here's the article they wrote about her today... it's pretty awesome! (The picture is of the other girl though... not Ryan!)
Anyway, I'm really proud of her today. We'll see how she handles it going into Tuesday's game. That'll be really telling. We shall see!
