Let the High School basketball season begin!
Here are a couple shots from the boys basketball Jamboree... a pre-season scrimmage of local teams.
Tonight happened to match up the biggest rivals in the town, Terrebonne and Ellender. Had it been a regular season game, there would have been zero empty seats and all corners of the gym would be filled with standing room only. But since most of the Terrebonne team is still playing football, it wasn't as hyped at usual.... but it was still fun to watch.
This area has some amazing basketball talent for some reason, and it makes High School ball awesome to watch. You'll have solid teams and of course a few showboats that like to flaunt what they can do. Makes the games fun to attend.
We've had a team in the state finals the last three years.
I really wanted some nachos from the concession stand tonight, but the line was always way to long. So, I'm starving right now and am going to get something to eat.
Anyway, here are a few shots from tonight. A dunk and a funky, from the hip, scoop-type lay-up thing.
