Derek has had a GREAT senior basketball year. They won the district championship and we are off to the state tournament in Boise this week. He has been in the paper after every game. Not only does his coach say great things about him the other coaches also have rave reviews about his ability to drive to the hoop or make a clutch 3 pointer. He only received one article with bad press because he didn't make all his free throws that game. hahaha He didn't want me to cut that one out! It was kinda sad last Thursday when they won the District Championship because that will be the last time he plays in the Bear Den:( We have watched him play many games in that gym. He has a group of 5 seniors this year that have played basketball together since they were in 4th grade. They haven't branched out much either. These are still Derek's best friends.
