Today at Okisho, the high school kids participated in tournaments all day. Classes put their best feet forward on the volleyball and basketball courts, competing for class pride. Okisho boasts a sports program - some students do sports all afternoon - but this does not guarantee victory for these super-athletes! In fact, to the best of my knowledge, only the boys' volleyball tournament saw the sports course kids victorious. The runner-ups were an 11th grade class that I have the joy of teaching 4 times a week. Seen above is Daisuke Matsuda, one of my "Yambaru boys", who did everything he could to keep his team alive. Also pictured are the 12th grade girls from class 3-5, who lost their opening match. Below are the 2-6 girls after winning a volleyball match, and the 2-5 girls, who took the basketball tournament championship home. My voice is hoarse from all the mad cheering I did. I love Okisho!!!
