Heartbroken

It was a hard fought victory, to be sure, and I would never fault them their moment. But damn it we fought hard as well and were ahead the entire game save for the last half second.

We gained a good 10 point lead in the first half by playing aggressively and taking most rebounds and stopping them on offense. At one point they almost caught up but we regained our commanding lead.

Somewhere in the last quarter these Overlake Christians slaughtered a pig or prayed to some Norse God or accepted Jesus and were connected to some large vein of luck and energy and managed to score within 1 point. They had the ball on the sideline with 2 seconds or so and managed to sink on before the clock ran out.

That's heartbreak. It's a very unique pain when you fight so hard and lose. =-(

I think I need a hug....

Though on the other hand, it was probably one of the best games we've played so far. When teams are fairly evenly matched, thats when things are fun. =-)
