Jane makes her college debut

Jane's 8U rec basketball team was invited to scrimmage at half time of a W&M women's basketball game. She was so, so excited and nervous.

They did such a good job, they even announced the teams and the players by name and number. Jane's team won 2-0 (the girls were having trouble hitting the 10 foot hoops - they play with 8 foot hoops).

The girls had so much fun watching the game together.

Another friend from class was also there (above) and the girls made it on the jumbotron (below) - you can tell Jane was nervous (this was still pre-halftime) because she just stayed sitting in her seat not celebrating.

The mascot came to sit with her all dressed up for Christmas.

Afterwards, the women's team invited them to join in their post-game huddle.

Then they signed autographs for the girls. 

It was such a fun opportunity - Jane was thrilled!
