When it was time to head out to Boone at the start of the weekend Vickey Ritchie wasn’t sure if we would have an opponent for the Basketball practice on Sunday or not.
Enter Brandi Cochran – Mitchell into the conversation and the next thing you know ole Jed was a Millionaire.
We went from wondering if we would have five players to having a Gymnasium full of folks, quality folks.
For those who have never been to one of the Sunday afternoon sessions, we have a group of people come over to compete against our Special Olympics Basketball 🏀 team. The reference to the Washington Generals comes from the Harlem Globetrotters, the Generals were the team that offered themselves up as the opposition.
We had some first-time players and some returning guests. The guest list of youngsters included Ashton and Andrew Primm , Lilly and Kinsley Goad, CC and Ben Mitchell.
Next up we had Papa (Blake) Goad and then a pair in the middle. Recent graduate 🎓 Lauren Alley and current CCHS Student Athlete Madison Coleman rounded out the playing roster.
It was fun to meet some new folks and I miss seeing Lauren Alley but I want to close with Madison Coleman. Miss Coleman is always, always smiling, everytime I see her. Not sure what’s up with that but I think its kinda Awesome and I would believe her Mother thinks so as well…
Lucas Cochran, Ladies and Gentlemen ! Great to meet him, the Goads and the Primms.
It takes a special person to give up part of their Sunday afternoon just to make a day better for others…
Fun notes 📝 – Kinsley Goad might have been the leading scorer and every now and then we saw flashes of our old #30.
