Tryouts Day 1 & 2 8/10/11-8/11/11

Lots to catch up on! Kolby had his first 2 days of tryouts. It's been frustrating trying to communicate with him cause his internet sucks! Here is what he had to say about day 1:
hey mom! so we woke up today and met up with charles and tommy and hung out with all the guys here.. we shot around and just hung out outside by the bball court.. then after that we went and got food.. the food here is way cheaper! after eating we went to the grocery store and got some water and fruit for snacks in between meals. we took a charter bus to the gym and the gym is pretty ghetto.. there are three courts for all 47 of us. we started out by playing back row threes then got split up a little according to talent. i was on the top court the whole time! after that we played sixes for the rest of the time. there were a lot of outsides but i felt pretty good about myself. so the first day went good and we have to be up early tomorrow so im goin to bed! ill write ya tomorrow to tell ya how it goes! 
Day one in the books! It sounds like it was a really good day for him! it took him a minute or two to figure out the difference in balls  and air but he caught on real quick and had a really good day! 
Day 2: he said today was a little bit more frustrating, they didn't split up based on talent today so he didn't play with anyone really good, he was pretty down on the whole day but then we got this from him: i just found out i was one of the guys chosen to go play a scrimmage somewhere tomorrow. i think were playing the camaroon national team!! We are stoked! He didn't know where it was the main guy just told them to pack their bags and they are going on a road trip tomorrow! We are super excited for him and hope that tomorrow will be a great day for him!!
