The Rams ended the regular season in third place and this week it was the playoffs.
Monday it was Lexi and The Rams playing Roosevelt Middle School. They had to win this game to advance on in the tournament and they did not disappoint. Lexi had the first 4 points in the first 30 seconds! She got the tip off and made a beautiful lay up and then turned around and made an incredible steal making another lay up! The girls played such a clean game, with very few fouls or turnovers, they just looked amazing out there... towards the end of the game the other team started getting more physical (one girl even got a technical foul) and it got pretty heated... but our girls did not sink to their level. The Rams won with the final score 32-20.
This team won the tournament last year. It was an incredibly fast paced game, I don't know who was more nervous the parents or the girls, most of the parents were barely even able to breath! The crowd was pumped up, cheering nonstop for our Lady Rams... Walnut Creek was undefeated in the regular season so we knew our girls were going to have to play their hearts out. The stars aligned tonight... our girls never gave up, every time they got down they picked themselves up and came back even stronger... winning the Johnny Harris Tournament by 1 point.... final score 30 - 29!!! Congrats Rams on your championship win!!!!
And this time I was ready with the camera!
Receiving their first place trophy.
Lexi amazes me, she is both fierce and flawless. I have had so much fun watching her play and can't wait until next year! I love you Lex!
Volume up and enjoy the video highlights from the season!

Lex, that is awesome. We are so stinking proud of you!
Way to go Lexi, way to go Rams. What an exciting play by play discription Angie. I couldn't contain myself reading the script let alone being there in person. Lex has inherited the eye of the tiger. It was obvious from the video portion her moves come naturely, more instinct than learned just like her dads. Love ya Lex....

Remember these successes as they will help you when you have tough experiences. You can do anything! Thanks for letting us share in your victories.
