IRI Team List and Blank Invoice

Heh... yes. A couple of points here:

I recall setting up the pits in the auxilliary gym a few years ago. The boys basketball team was practicing as we were setting up tables and electrical panels on the perimeter. I noticed a ~7-foot b-ball player on the floor, and asked one of the electricians who the skinny kid was. He just grinned at me and said "yeah, that kid is a freshman... he's gonna be very good."

Also... last year, we were setting up the scoring table, and were wondering how we were going to get a webcast. The year before, I think that we ran an Ethernet cable from about a mile away to do this, and it was a pain. The main electrician said "with all of the media and press coverage we are getting for Oden, the gym now has its own internet connection." So, we do benefit from a strong athletic program at LNHS.

Like it or not, high school basketball is still king in Indiana. As you can read, 9 of the nation's 10 largest high school gyms are in Indiana, and Lawrence North is not even on that list.

This is easy to say as a past wrestler in Indiana but what about football?

I don't really know how to judge the teams as to how good they'll be, seeing as I was unable to attend the two regoinals my team went to, but if everyone's so excited about who's going, it makes me... that excited mulitplied by 10!

I think it will be nice to finally see some of these teams that I've talked to people from and whatnot. All the teams I've heard of and from. It should be great.

I shouldn't be that hard to miss. I'm a girl from 393 who, if my previous curse with hair dye prove true, will have some weird red streaks in her hair.

Good luck to all, and I can honestly say I can't wait to see you all!

Simply,
Danielle

At my school, the band kids and computer club teamed up to intimidate the football team. The theatre crew was made up of the cool kids. There were hot girls in the autoshop class. The chess club had tryouts.

... but they still don't have a robotics team. ugh. Maybe I can get them to go to this IRI thing.

i'm so excited about IRI! our "head coach" if that's what i wanna call him announced officially that's we're gonna be there and i sooo hope that i can come. i'd love to see everyone again and get some rematches (we're still looking for a rematch 393!) so hopefully my parents will let me go and i'll actually have money.

You want to talk about an amazing competition? This will definitely be one of the most challenging ones that I have been to. Last year was pretty competitive but I envision it being even better this year. G ood luck and see everyone there.

Are there going to be webcasts for IRI? Because even though I can't go, I'd love to see them.

Thank you.
