Aloha Tournament LAX

 Jack played in another LaCrosse Tournament this past weekend.  It was the Aloha Tournament.  The great thing was that it was about 10 minutes way.  Yay.  He did a great job playing the Defense. 

He did a good job until he took out #7 on the Hive team.  I though everyone aroune me was going to yell at me because they were yelling that it wasn't football.  Ok...It seemed the kid was ok and kept playing.  That is always a good sign.  

Friday we played 3 games.  Lost all three.

Saturday we showed up for one game at 9:00 am.  Not sure how it all worked out, but we only had that game.  He did a great job but this time he got nailed in the neck by a ball.  I saw the ball fly, then I saw Jack go down.  BAM.  

Then he got back up and went out.  He was finished for the rest of the game about 5 minutes.  He said he got hit, then got some tingling all through his body which was weird.  Then it went away.  I don't see any bruises.  Of course it hit him where there was no padding or helmet.  

It was hot but super fun to watch him play.

Nick Update

 

Nick hasn't emailed or called for a while, but this is an update from Facebook

Thisis his friends story.  Not sure how to get it so you can watch it again.  It is a great testimony.

LAX Tournament in Heber

 Jack is playing for this club team in Syracuse.  We met the coach when Nick was working at Holiday Gas Station.  So he recruited about 5 kids from Bountiful and they play summer for Syracuse.

We had a tournament in Heber over the weekend. They wore their Junior Jazz jersies they wore when they were in 8th Grade.  Good thing we still had two of them.  I guess I got rid of the other 20 that we had.  

Brooke went with me on Friday.  It wa Cold and rainy.  That is better than sitting there when it is sooo hot.  We were prepared with our umbrellas from Home Depot and the cat blanket.  I had the dog blanket.  Brooke had her coat from Yellowstone on.  

This was th wecond game as they had to put the jazz jersies on the other side. Purple.  Never thought we would need them again.

Here's jack and his Friend Bo, that we gave a ride.  

I can't remember if they won or lost.  But on the way home, Bo and Jack both said how much fun that was.  Way more fun than High School LAX.
