The St Mary's Royals


Over the weekend we traveled to Columbus for an all St Mary's Catholic Church tournament. It was only St Mary's named churches in the state. There were 9 teams from all over. It was a 7th and 8th grade tournament but the majority was 8th. Our team lost both games and didn't advance but it was fun. We competed. Kyle knew one of the boys from the Cincinnati squad from his Moeller basketball camp. The kid was amazing and almost dunked it on a fast break. Dr Bidlack brought his Buckeye RV and between games we tailgated -complete with cornhole. The tournament was at the St Mary's church in German Village. The highlight of the weekend though came with my quest to stalk Buckeye athletes when... we were at the hotel pool and Ron struck up a conversation with a women (he says she started talking to him first) who was asking about the Buckeye RV in the parking lot (Dr Bidlacks) when he found out who it was is when I got involved... Beanie's mom was in town for a NFL scouting session at Ohio State! We became instant BFF's... (sorry Jill) she is hoping he gets drafted for Jacksonville, the NFL told her they prefer if the parents move with the athletes who are under 21. She gave us a "Beanie Wells T-shirt". and I couldn't figure out that damn cell phone camera and didn't get a picture. I needed Katie. I told her to have Beanie call me. I'll let ya know how that turns out.
