The Lakes finished their last regular season game today.  This weekend they took on the #1 team, the Ryukyu Golden Kings.  Despite two frustrating losses, I think they all can look on the season as a success.  As a first year team they truly came into their own and earned a dedicated fan base.  For Ray, it was an incredible opportunity to play for an outstanding coach and with amazing teammates.  He came to love basketball again.  He was able to gather 23 points, 13 rebounds and 2 assists today, despite the loss.

What a shot! I can almost see the ball rolling down the palm of Ray's hand and the motion hitting it back to the team. Out of curiosity, who is the guy in the black jersey? Doesn't look like a player from either team but also not a ref because he looks like he's jumping for the ball. Glad you two are heading home and so excited to see you! Love, Aunt Laurie
