End of Season for Hector's team. The were runners-up in the house championship game, but then Hector was awarded the SomebodyorOther memorial trophy for the "Peewee Goalie with the Most Heart" for the goalie who worked hard and always gave it that little bit extra. Son, I am proud. You earned it.

Awesome!

My 3200 meter relay team held the HS record for 20 years. My mom and I always said, though, that the 400m is the toughest race: full out for a full lap. I ran it, but liked 800m better!

Good on Zing 2.

And Hector is the bomb!

Yup. She'll have her name and time up in the high school field house.

Me again. Sorry. Middle School Swim Meet. Whole team were awesome and dropped time all over the place. Star was Hebe who won the breaststroke by over second. She's my hero. She could never win the damn thing, but now she's got a taste for it....... The high school swimmer timing in her lane said "that's faster than me!"
