January came in like a lion for us and it's been a steady stream.

Food requests are way up. We sent out $1,500 in food purchase cards in January.

Bill got us helmets and locks at cost and donated a bicycle pump to Manna Meal.

What we cannot have happen is for us to hang our heads and feel sorry for ourselves. Tough times don't last; tough teams do. Our team made a step tonight against the No. 6 team in the country, and we could have very easily won this game.

The hungry lion hunts best, and we saw which team was hungriest tonight. They handed it to us.

The defensive pressure we applied after halftime really helped us. And the good shots we got by going inside on offense wore them down.
