Nov. 13, 2008

From my journal while I was abroad in England:
I WATCHED Davidson play Lenoir-Rhyne College last night -- paid $5.95 cause Kilgo isn't starting till Friday. But Teamline has live video stream -- so no commentary, just THE GAME. And all the sights and sounds of Belk Arena. I was flipping out with surreal joy and longing, SEEING the starting line up (Steve! Bryant! Max! Steph!Andrew!), hearing THE NATIONAL ANTHEM... hearing the pep band play songs that make Davidson for me. So weird, so awesome... Becca came over for the second half and we squealed and talked and sighed wistfully and watched our home on a screen. And sang "Sweet Caroline."

Oh, and we won 87-54.

And Steph had a VERY quiet -- 41.

Ya know -- tie your career high in an exhibition -- no big deal.

We were a bit sloppy and D-Cats is already freaking out (although in the in-game M. Kruse wrote "It sure was worth the $5.95 to watch this EXHIBITION GAME on my MacBook." Thanks Kruse. Reality check.) but I have faith. If I learned ANYTHING last year, it is to keep the faith.
