Boonville Panthers vs Castle Squires

Jordan's team played their rival last night, Castle.  The "A" team lost horribly, by 49 points.  The "B" team, lost by only 7!  Jordan played his heart out, scored 4 pts. in the game.  I am so proud of his hustle on the court.  He is learning so much on and off the court, it is definitely building his character.  He was upset last night that his coach pulled him out twice for making mistakes and he seemed to be the only one that was treated that way.  We tried to explain to him that coach maybe saw more in him than he did and that he was trying to send him a message to work harder.  Jordan is the type of kid that needs to be motivated and I believe the message was received loud and clear.  As a mom, I wanted to tell the coach off but I know that this experience is building his character and it will eventually pay off.  We told him to keep pushing himself to do better and the results will speak for themselves!   I am so proud of Jordan, he is not perfect by any means but is turning out to be a great young man.  Way To Go Panthers, you definitely gave it a hard fight last night!!!!
