Learn new things everyday, Thanks! Well the time has come for me to "Toot".
Thanks to Harry Carey and a 4 year old my bball journey began! Michael started tball at 5, memories of picking grass and throwing it in the air while playing 3rd base

Since then Michael has excelled in the sport! PLaying every year on regular season and being chosen for all stars too we have devoted our summers to bball. In 2000 our all star team got to play the district championship game at Lamade Stadium (the first time Little league ever let local teams use and play on the field). We got to the States that year, also first time in 40 some odd years a team from Loyalsock made it that far, The township rallied with them. A couple of coaches at the tourney told our coache Michaels was the best 3rd basement they have seen in the State Tourney, But Michael says he just plays the game. Last year Michael played with the varsity team as a sophmore and played jv too. He played regular season LL ALL Stars , He was chosen 2nd pick to represent the Nittany region at the Keystone Games, what a great experience! While scrimmaging a AAu team the coach asked if he would like to play some tourney ball with their team, of course Michael said yes, We went with this team to the ECTB World series in CT last year, Team came in 3rd place. Michael seems to have a god given talent in bball, such a love and passion for the game and it reflects in his game. He also played football this year and was Captain of JV and played varsity, Got a Letter this year for Football, not bad for a kid only playing his 2nd year. Micahael is a great student, taking honors and advanced classes. He would like to pursue playing bball in college, but he also knows that academics is the key! Well enough tooting for me!
