Last Saturday I played in an alumni basketball game. The only enjoyable experience was seeing old faces! These were faces I have not seen since the last day of high school. Walking into the gym was a weird feeling. Everything looked a little smaller, and the girls we were playing looked like babies. Although, I think we all looked like the same spring chickens we were 10 years ago! The night before the big game Scotty made us a warm-up tape of Jock Jams. Sadly, at the game Scotty and Nick realized that some of our old favs came out before the girls we were playing against were even born! Not a good start! Anyway, so we did our usual run around the court to the warm up tape to find half the girls sweating profusely doubled over with their hands on their knees. I of course was not one of them! There were 16 of us girls on the alumni team and the game was a one 20 minute half. This means we each get 5 minutes of play. True to form, I was in the last group, BUT let me explain!! I RSVPed for this event as a ‘maybe’ and therefore my name was not on the original roster when they made the groups. Because, as we all know, I otherwise would have been on the starting team! Right!! Well needless to say the 5 minute intervals became 4 because we just aren’t in the shape that we were 10 years ago. Well we are in a shape, just not the same one as before! Time to go for a run!! End result: The Varsity team beat the alumnis by about 20. Hey, at least we scored (twice I think!).
