Rylan's first AAU tournament of the season was the local Steve Talbot Tournament.
His team was only formed at the start of the year so they're really new to playing with each other.
They lost their first game, won their second in overtime, lost their third, and won their final game.
It wasn't a good enough record to get them in the championship round.
But it was a full week-end of basketball, getting to know new players and parents, and volunteering.
Ry's first game was on Friday night.
He asked Logan if he could use his old Panther bag, and Logan said yes.
My kid...warming up in his jacket because he's always cold.
Driving in with that dominant left hand.
We were missing 2 players the whole week-end and on Sunday one of the players was late to the game.
So these 5 played the whole first half!
They won that game, but it's tough to play without your full team.
Meanwhile in San Diego, Dave was attending his company's National Sales Meeting
(it always falls on the same week-end as the Steve Talbot tourney)
The keynote speaker was Archie Manning (Peyton Manning's dad).
He has some of the company's hardware in his back.
Dave "kind of" rushed the stage to get a picture with him and he really enjoyed his speech.
I love that he texted me "OMG"...I think he may have been "fan-girling" a little bit!
Week-end made for Dave...
Until the next night at the awards ceremony where Dave won the
National Sales Representative of the Year
He thought he may be considered for some regional awards, but winning the big one was a complete surprise.
Wenatchee is a small territory comparably to some of the other major markets.
He grossed 9.4 million for his company in 2017.
Up on stage receiving his award and being congratulated by the owners and CEO.
