Trisha~
Now, I'm not very interested in basketball, but even I was holding my breath when Nathan threw the ball.
The ball flew through the air. It landed on the rim, rolled around once...twice...teetered on the edge...and dropped
into the basket. I screamed. The other cheerleaders and I started doing our routine. I stood on their hands and screamed,
"Go Rockets", then flipped off. I landed perfectly. My cheeks ached, I was grinning so wide.
Sure, the Rockets hadn't won the game yet, but now they had something going for them. The basket had caught the Spartans
by surprise, so they were a little uneasy. All the Rockets were congratulating Nathan, giving him high-fives and slapping
him on the back.
All the Rockets fans were going nuts. The Spartans fans were just sitting there, completely stunned. I couldn't
stop grinning.
