Jill is playing on the Varsity Girls Basketball team for Cardston High School. Byron Pierson is her coach. He has coached her spring league team for lots of years and he coached JV girls for a long time. He is a really good coach, and he knows how to win, and he knows a lot about basketball but he can get too intense. They decided to ask him to coach this year if Austin was his assistant coach to make sure he didn't get too worked up. They have made an awesome coaching team.
Hanna is on the Junior Varsity Girls Basketball team, and her coach is Jeff Johnson. He is awesome. The teams practice together and the three coaches together are really a good team.
Jill's first tournament was the Cougar Classic. When her team played Foothills Composite from Okotoks, she was on fire and made about a couple 3-pointers and ended up with 19 points. We ended up playing against Raymond in the championship and lost. Jill did receive the Offensive Player Award for the tournament and got a basketball and a $100 Sportcheck gift card.
Hanna's first tournament was at Lethbridge College. They were the champions!
Both teams played in a Catholic Central High School Tournament, and they both were the champions of the tournament. They gave them some sweet CCHS mittens as part of their prize. Jill and Hanna both played well! I love watching them play.
