She Made It!!

Brooke has been playing volleyball since she was 12, either church ball or club ball. She's really gotten pretty good and it's so much fun to watch her play.
Brighton High School tryouts started last Monday. When I picked her up from the first day, she said "that was fun. I really want to make it on the team." Yea! I was just glad she was having fun.
After tryouts on Tues, the coach said they were going to just start practices for the season and then let everyone know on the day school starts if there would be any cuts. So far so good.
Then on Thursday, the head coach called Brooke and wanted her to start coming to the JV/Varsity practices in addition to the Soph practices. So on Thursday and Friday she practiced from 9:30 - 12:30 and 1:30 - 6:00! That's a lot of volleyball. Some days she could barely walk or move once she got home.
On Thursday, she officially made the teams!! Double YEA!! We're so proud of her and are excited to watch her play as a BENGAL!
