Thanks everyone for the well wishes for Nate - I told him he had lots of people rooting for him.  He did feel good enough to play in part of the first game - they got smashed.  I don&#39;t know why they bother to do classifications (spent 4 hours at the gym last week while they were evaluated).  Both teams they played against were way superior.  The first game they lost 32 to 7.  Then they had to play the team that had beaten that team. It wasn&#39;t as bad 28 to 12 but I think that was because they were &quot;saving&quot; it fo rthe championship game.  The coach was mighty ticked as we were the only team in this situation.  I know it must be difficult but you would think they would look at the teams record from the year before.  Are boys are just beginners - a lot of these players have been playing on the same team for years.  Oh well - he played more the second game and even made a basket - which made his day.  They got bronze medals and we were done by 2:15.<br /><br />My DH and I are one our way to being certified coaches for SO track and field.  I wouldlove to be a Bocce coach and start a team but not much interest.  I may tag along with another for this year - get my certificaion and then try for next year.  We missed the deadline to get certifed in basketball.  <br /><br />We are taking Nate out for a congratulatory dinner so I will bid you all good-night.  Maybe I&#39;ll get a chance to see what everyone has been up to tomorrow - just wanted to fill you in on the event.<br />
