Apparently, I jumped the gun on “crying” earlier this week about Madysen’s last school game of the year. Following the end of the JV season, she–along with a couple of other girls–was brought up to the varsity squad for the last two regular season games. And if they win both, they’ll make the playoffs. The first was Friday evening against Frisco.
I made sure to take a couple of pictures of the warmup since I wasn’t sure whether Madysen would get any playing time.

She shoots . . .

She scores!
Then they introduced both teams.

The game went very well for HP–as they were up 3-0 at half. So Madysen got in for the last 16 minutes. I could tell she was a bit nervous, but she did fine.
