Dodgeball and Basketball
That's what's been going on lately. The Prairie Stars Mens Basketball Team is now NATIONALLY RANKED!!!!! We have been as high as #19 in the nation, but are sitting at #22 right now after a loss to McKendree. Blue Crew is right there to keep them going on the home games, but they are now on a 2 week road trip so hopefully they pull some big wins through that time. We are pretty much guaranteed a conference title though, which is a first.
Also, there was a sweet Dodgeball tournament about a week ago and I got to be a referee. Good times. :) Of course, here are the pics.
And of course I would be remissed if I didnt give a shoutout ot Mike Mayberry, my #1 fan, over in Bluebell 165. Keep it real.
Ready?
Here we go.
Picture time.
The winning dodgeball team, 5-0.
(L to R: John Kelly, Alan Escobar, Cody Cooper, Ian Beall, Nick Schafer, Lance Ennen, Dave Kim, Jeff Black.)

Before a game

Ready, DODGEBALL!

Chance was ruthless.

Frank was as well.

Hey, if Allie won't post about Eric Cromer, I will. What a stud.

KJ takes it to the hoop.

Mike with the patented finger roll.

KJ for 2 again

Antonio hits the 3 with the Blue Crew behind him.

Gettin' pumped.

Cheerleaders doin' what they do

That's some intense school spirit.

Puckett looks for a rebound

Blue Crew does not agree with that call.
