After our games on Sunday in San Felipe, our good friend Paty who runs the basketball program there invited us to come to her school (where she is the sports director) and have a fun Tuesday morning playing basketball.
Needless to say it was not that difficult to talk the Hoops students into missing a day of classes to play basketball.
The San Felipe team was no match for the Hoops Sagrado Young Guns so Diggs and Malik did the right thing and agreed to play for San Felipe. At half time, a group of teachers joined the San Felipe

team and even though the officiating was horrible, the Hoops Sagrado Young Guns won by two.
The real fun though was after the game was over. Dozens of San Felipe students flooded the court and wanted their photos taken with all the players and their autographs as well.

Seriously, Justin Beiber, One Direction and whatever popular boy bands are out there ain't got nothin' on the Hoops Sagrado folks. Even the Old Heads and Stat Girl got in on the action.
All of the students were wildly popular, but I have to say that the reason there isn't a good photo of Max during this fracas is because Stat Girl couldn't get close enough to him to take a photo.

Also, Sebastian was ridiculously popular. It may have been a bit overwhelming for a nine-year-old, but he took it in stride.

On a more serious note, Hoops Sagrado has made a tradition of giving away our scoreboard each year. Last time we were here it was to our good friends in San Cris and this time to our dear friend Paty who has always welcomed us with open arms.

| Gracias Paty for your friendship! |
