From
the ending of last year’s basketball season
to the end of this year’s basketball season,
I have become an extremely
|
|
proud
parent. Both my daughter’s have managed to
give me a wonderful gift. My older
daughter, Rozalyn gave us our first
granddaughter, Regan Lindsay Moore. My
younger daughter, Lindsay gave us a fabulous
basketball season.
|
|
Both
have had a tremendously positive impact on our
collectively large family. Both brought
joy in the present and hope for the future.
There are even times to reminisce in the past.
|
|
|
“Oh,
Regan is so cute, she looks so much like her
mother did at 8 months.” “Remember
that first high school summer league game
where Lindsay played on varsity?” more...

There
Was A Raid On Us At Texas Tech And We Lost |
 |
Darn, I
think if we had been on a neutral court
we would have won that game with Texas
Tech. Of course I can say that but
not the players or the coaches. After
reading some of
the
|
nice things
some of the Texas Tech fans and the
Coach of their team said made it easier
to take the lose. Their Coach said she
was shaking when the game was over and
was sure the team was also because they
came out alive. Their team played a good
game and a smart game but the officials
made some very bad calls that cost us
the game. Fouling Jess Hansen out when
she didn't deserve it really did hurt
us. Who knows what she might have pulled
out for us. The Coach of the Texas Tech
said she put her best Guard on Kristen
Mann and doubled teamed Lindsay Taylor.
That was smart because Kristen Mann is
so good and everyone knows it now. They
must have done a good job on Mann
because she did well but not as well as
she usually does. It is not the fault of
the team or the fans that the officials
made bad calls that cost us points, but
I can hear them saying "but we will
take it" because I have heard our
announcer say that for our team once in
a while when a call goes our way. So we
will go to the Sweet Sixteen next year,
as we should have an even stronger team
then. We will miss our seniors of course
and could always use them.
Lindsay Taylor really step up her
playing and made us all very proud of
her. One of the Fastbreakers said they
think at this time Lindsay is now one of
the best Centers in the Nation. That
made Grandma very happy but of course I
have thought that for sometime now. Of
course I am very partial. lol All
the girls played so hard and well. Mia
was wonderful as usual and will be even
better next year. Thank you Gauchos for
many great games and wonderful memories.
Love Helen Taylor

French Kiss |
|
One more year left in
Lindsay's college basketball career, which will be a
whopper along with the fantastic team expected
to take |
|
|
the floor in the
2003-2004 season. The whole year should be
dedicated to being dedicated, so each player comes
out knowing they are part of a great life experience
by becoming the best student and athlete in a
University that really cares about their well being.
There will be high expectations, but these ladies
will work hard to climb the mountain. They didn't
get down on themselves this year on what could have
been and they won't get down on themselves next
year, but fight to the end knowing to be a Gaucho
means being a winner and getting a big pat on the
back from the University and a big hug from Coach
French for a job well done. |
