Jeff, Cam and Nate Go to Denver

The boys got a great opportunity this past weekend. Each year after the high school baseball season is over Coach Culver takes his team to Denver to watch the Colorado Rockies play baseball. This year Jeff got to go as a driver and they had the time of their lives. At the last minute there was an extra ticket so Coach Culver offered it to Cameron. So Jeff and his boys got to go together. They had a wonderful time. They left Thursday night, drove to Laramie then onto Denver the next morning, watched the Rockies go 13 innings against the New York Mets and win. Saturday they went to another game. Due to seminary graduation on Sunday night, Jeff, Cameron, Nate, Corby Dixon and Jon Homer came home a day early but they said it was definately worth it.

That's my Girls!

Bear Lake Takes 2nd at State

Just wanted to finish the story. Bear Lake lost to Fruitland in their journey to capture their third state championship. Fruitland was a very good team. We just couldn't get our offense going. Nate hit another home run in the game but with no one on base it didn't change the outcome of the game. But we are still very proud of them. They are a great group of talented boys. Nate isn't done! He will be playing American Legion this summer and then heading off to play at College of Eastern Utah. So we will still be watching ball games.

Bears Win Again

We are on our way to the Championship game for the third year in a row. We are very excited. We play saturday afternoon at 4:00 against a very tough Fruitland team. We beat Payette 11-4. Spencer pitched his best game of the year. I am very nervous about todays game. Fruitland looks very tough and we will have to play our best to beat them.

Bears Win First Game at State

Just quick update for everyone! Bears won their first game at State against Bonners Ferry with a score 15-1. Nate pitched and was awesome but also had 4 doubles in the game with several RBI's. The weather is beautiful and we all got sunburned. We play today at 4:00 against Payette. Wish us luck!

Blackfoot Volleyball Takes 2nd at Regionals

Kayloni and her club volleyball team went to Regionals in Salt Lake city this past weekend. They took 2nd in their division. They did very well and it was great to see such huge improvement from the beginning to the end of the season. She played with girls that were older than her and was every bit as competitive. Her love is volleyball so we will be changing gears from baseball to volleyball.

Bear Lake Baseball Wins District... Repeat State 3 years in a row!

They did it again! Bear Lake beat Snake River 14-11 in a very intense ball game yesterday. Snake River is a very good ball team and they were not about to give up. They started out ahead but we had a great inning and scored 6 runs due to 2 home runs. They changed pitchers and that slowed things up but we hung in there. We would score then they would score back and forth. Then Nate came up and hit a home run and scored 3 and that gave us the lead we needed. We will be going to Ontario, Oregon next week for state. This is the last time, the last hurrah for Bear Lake High School Baseball. I can't believe they grew up so fast.
