Kyler's Basketball

It always seems harder to see Kyler's growth through a basketball season until the tournament. He seems to always shine during those last few games, and it's so fun to watch!! His team was younger and smaller than most of the teams they played this year, but they never got blown out. They fought and played really well. They lost a lot of close games and won some too. Kyler is getting more attentive and aggressive. He no longer runs away from the ball and has gotten so much more tough! His team will play Damon's next year so it should be an interesting game!!

It was so good to see Kyler trying to dribble the ball rather than just looking to pass!
Going for the shot
Although it looks like Kyler is shying away from the ball, this was actually taken right after Kyler blocked that kid's shot!  It was a great play!
Good straight up defense!!
Free Throws
The team after a hard loss to a team that they can't seem to beat!!  They played the team last year 3 times and only once this year, but in total they have only lost by 6 points in 4 games!  For once we want to beat the Drillers!!
The weird way Kyler will run down the court.



The first game of the tournament was Kyler's best game! Here's one of the shots he made. 



He also made a 3 point shot in that game. 



Although, he doesn't make the shot, we were proud of how Kyler didn't just immediately shoot the ball or pass it. He took the effort to dribble around someone and make a play! 



 Kyler has gotten so much more aggressive! He was usually really good about rebounding and blocking out. One time (not in this video) Kyler's coach sent him specifically to block out a shooter on free throws because two other kids on his team failed to do it. Kyler listened and the kid wasn't able to get the rebound because Kyler blocked him out! In this video he gets knocked down but gets up and keeps going with out pouting or tears!!





One of the many Saturdays we were in Altus and I was in Walmart grocery shopping, this is how they were entertaining themselves!!
