Sometimes miracles happen. Case in point - Tyler's coaches
actually played the entire team during the first half of today's game, which may
have been the only time all season (at least since the first game or two) that
this has happened. He also put in everybody in the second half as well for
nearly 4 full minutes, although this probably could have and should have been
longer. With the team ahead by 20 points the bench players finally got a chance
to step onto the court. Tyler managed three shots - a three point attempt, a
short jumper, and a driving layup that he made. He had a couple of turnovers
too, but I think some of that is over-anxiousness from finally getting to step
foot on the court during a game. In the end the boys hung tough, closing out a
51-38 victory over Lapeer West.

Tyler was all smiles after getting some quality playing time in
the game, despite knowing that he didn't play his best.
