By mid-December, Kaitlynn's first season of junior high basketball was well underway. Her team played in weekly games and occasional tournaments, and she was having a blast with her team. There were several game nights where her fellow 7th grade cheerleaders attended to cheer on the sidelines, and on those nights, Kaitlynn would cheer for the other athletes while wearing her basketball uniform. The funny thing is that she was really enjoying basketball FAR more than cheering!
As a player on the A team, Kaitlynn was second string and didn't get as much play time as she hoped. That didn't seem to bother her at all, because she loved her teammates and enjoyed every moment of time together both on and off the court. While she was one of the more inexperienced players, she still made some great contributions to the team throughout the season, despite several scheduling conflicts with her all-star cheer practices and competitions.
