That's what learning is, after all; not whether we lose the game, but how we lose and how we've changed because of it and what we take away from it that we never had before, to apply to other games. Losing, in a curious way, is winning.
RICHARD BACH, The Bridge Across Forever
The game started out with such promise...Braden drained a 3 and did the UK goggles down the court!
But tonight it was not our game to win.....
With tears in his eyes, Rollins dribbled down the court for the final seconds of the game tonight.
As the final buzzer rang....the boys....our Tigers.....who had given it all tonight...cried. This tournament was over.
They were heartbroken but with their little 8yr old hands in the air...they gave high fives to the winning team....and gathered together...and the tears juts kept falling......
After some hugs.....a trophy......
and some Impellazaries Pizza...the loss seemed to not hurt quite so much.
It's hard to loose.....
