SU wins and loses

Well, SU lost and won over the weekend. The basketball team just couldn't get it started Friday night and lost rather badly. We picked the worst night to have one of our worst shooting nights of the year. We did not make a 3-point basket in the first half and only had 4 for the whole game. Oh, well, better luck next year.

As for the SU lacrosse team they didn't particularly play all that great either, though they did come from behind to win, 14-13... They were behind by 6 goals in the 3 qrtr, and started their comeback in the later minutes of the 4th qrtr. I turned the tv to another show and didn't actually see the comeback, but did see them win. I almost freaked out when I saw that they came back to win and on the road no less!!

Well, on to the rest of the lacrosse season, then.

At least I have baseball to look forward to in the next week or two. New Yankee Stadium opens on April 16th.. Can't wait!!

Bye, Gina

WOW!! GO SU!!

Oh, my goodness, SU played some great basketball last week and almost won the Big East Tourn. to boot. They played a 6ot game on Thursday, and won to go the semi-final and then the final. I went to bed at the beginning of the overtimes, because if I didn't I would never have gotten up to go to work the following morning. I did get to watch it on ESPNU the next afternoon when I got home from work. And, believe me, I watched like I would if it was live. I yelled and got pissy and couldn't believe what I missed!! We lost, mostly because we just couldn't do it in the later half of the 2nd half. We ran out of juice, you could say. But, all in all it was great tournament. Now, it's on to the NCAA tournament!

Hello, I know it's been awhile since I was here last and let me tell you, not much has really happened. I have been working, of course, and watching basketball. SU won 20 games again this year, let's hope they make the "Big Show" after not going 2 years in a row. They will get a bye in the Big East Tourn. next week with a seeding of 6th in the league. Not bad, considering we were not predicted to finish that high!

The World Baseball Classic started this week and it should be good. The USA team beat Canada today and will play again tomorrow in what is called a double elimanation round. If they win they go on to the next round. Derek Jeter is the only Yankee on the US squad, this year. Several other Yankee players are on different teams.

The weather is getting better, as it should when March comes around. It is in the 40's now with the high of about 48 tomorrow. It was 58 yesterday. Nice!!

My sister's and I are going to have lunch this weekend with our Mom for our monthly lunch. Should be fun as usual, when we get together. We'll see if my niece, Krissy, is going to join us or not. She did last month and she looked good and was doing well in her classes at Onondaga Community College here in Syracuse.. She wants to be a teacher or go into day care. She likes working with kids. She dyed her hair black from strawberry blonde, because she kept getting picked on for her light hair and dark eyebrows. Either way she looks very pretty. The picture of her is from Christmas last year.

GO SU!!! Good luck in the tournament next week!!!

Bye for now..
