Hi Carol, I played basketball and softball, second base, in grades 5, 6, 7, 8. In 8th grade we won the DC Metro championship for Catholic grade schools. That was very cool. I only played basketball in high school because there was no softball. Half way through we switched to partial full court play which was interesting.
Then in college I minored in Modern Dance. Half way through I got married and we used to play tennis doubles. But not so much because we were both working full time. Oh wait! Yeah, one season the company I worked for sponsored a women's softball team. We didn't win a championship but that season we were the only team to beat the very tough champions from the previous year. We won by one run and it was exciting right down to the final out. Your post from Hearthmath was very interesting. I'd seen a Bruce Lipton movie once that had a lot about them in it. Plus I have their book. And I'm also familiar with Dr. Emoto's work on water crystals. We are definitely living in very cool times. ________________________________ From: Carol <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2013 11:27 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tonight! Hey Share... Yes, he did enjoy it. It was a small camp so there were lots of one-on-one interactions with the pros. The other pro player whom I couldn't recall previously was Bobby Jones. Son played basketball and baseball through high school. He has now switched to P-90X and backpacking. :) Did you play basketball through high school or beyond? --- In [email protected], Share Long <sharelong60@...> wrote: > > Lefty Driesel! Now that's a name from the distant past. Wasn't he a bit > flamboyant? Actually I remember better the name Tom Nugent, UM football > coach because his daughter went to the same high school I did. Carol, it > sounds like your son had a great opportunity with that David Thompson camp. > Do you remember if he enjoyed it? Does he still play basketball? I don't > (-: > > > > ________________________________ > From: laughinggull108 <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Tuesday, April 9, 2013 3:54 PM > Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Tonight! > > >  > So you were a Terrapin, huh, with good ol' Lefty Driesell?
