A small (but significant) group of us went on Thursday night to see the Eagles play Northern Colorado in Reese Court. The basketball game was very exciting. At the end of the second half, the two teams were tied 71-71. In overtime, the Eagles outscored their opponents and managed an impressive win: 91-85. One player, Adris DeLeon (number 10) scored 42 points!
We had a fun time cheering from the stands. They handed out free EWU hand-towels, as well as red and white pom-poms, so we had something to wave everytime a big play was made. The cheerleaders led the crowd, but instead of following along, the crowd just yelled and clapped. The band also helped to get the excitement going and keep the environment loud.
During half-time, EWU students and EWU faculty played a game of dodgeball. Several small red balls were lined up in the middle of the court. From opposite sides the faculty and the students ran to the middle to get the balls. Then, they started throwing them at one another. If a person gets hit by a ball, they are "out" and have to stand at the back of the court. The last side with a player left who is not out, wins the game.
What kind of sports or activities do all of you like? Do you like to play, or just watch? Why do you like it?

That game was awsome. I was really excited. Yesterday, I read the articles about #11(Milan Stanojeve)in Eastener. I could know about him. He always shoot 3P a lot. I was a 3P shooter when I was a jr.high school student. So I know how hard to shoot many 3P. He is gerat! I will cheer him:-)
As you know, I like basketball the best. I really like to play and watch either! I also like track and field, becuse I belong to track and field club in Japan. I'm a hurdler. Especially, I like 400mH and 4×400mRelay. These are so excited. If you don't know about track and field, you should watch these!
Soon we will have to call this "Ai's Blog." Seriously though, your enthusiasm and participation are great, Ai!
I didn't know you jumped hurtles...that's amazing!
Personally, I hate exercise.
I am Vicky,a freshman in this school.In this winter break,I visited my brother who lives in Seattle.We went many popular places,such like SPACE NEEDLE,PIKE PLACE MARKET, and MUSIC MUSEUM,etc.In PIKE PLACE MARKET,we found a funny store named Pike place fish market.It is the most popular store.It has its' own T-shirts,hats and a marketing way.The employees of this store play games,sing happy songs, and say jokes when they work.They aren't only sales but also actors.They let buying has becomes more interesting.I bought a big fish and got a chance to take pictures with them.And, we went to the first store of Starbucks. That is really a small coffee store.It fills of many tourists every day.The only one difference between the fist one and others is logo.I like old one more.We had a good time in Seattle.I feel that Seattle is a typically city of America. I plan to visit again.

It's really hardto forget this game!! The song "We will rock you!", it's still in my mind round and round. Follow the tempo, the basketball court was rocked by all auduences. And the floor was shaken, it was like real earthquake!
Next time, please join us!!!
I like to watch the sport game more than play it.The only reason is that I am not good at sport. haha~~~I like to be a viewer of games. When you stand in the gym,you must feel so excited.There are always funny slogans,cheer squad's shows,screaming,and nice music.You can enjoy the atmosphere.The most important thing is that you don't have too much pressure.You just need to watch and enjoy.We always have the next game to watch because we are viewers.
