A Close Call

Mom said she was nervous. Dad didn't sweat it, but he did lose his voice.

That about sums up the 18-17 win Emily and Dad's team scored Sunday against St. Philip Neri. It was quite a nailbiter, with Emily throwing the ball way down court on an inbounds play with three seconds to go to run out the clock.

St. Mary's is now 7-0 and still in the driver's seat with four games remaining in the regular season. Next Saturday's game will be against a winless St. Matthew's team. Then, it's a rematch with Christ The King before the battle for the league title - a game at St. Peter & Paul (the defending champion and winners of 21 of their past 22 games).
