New hoop at the Benson house.  The Duke pad hasn't been too popular with friends and neighbors but Coach Ortman loves it.  Go Duke!

Grant Baseball

Grant and his team had a very successful 10AA season playing on the top team at his age-group in Buffalo.  Grant's team won the regular season championship and took 4th out of 32 teams at the MYAS state tourney losing to Champs in Semi's and took 3rd at the MSF tournament losing in the Semi's again in a controversial game.  Grant's biggest moment of his career came in the quarter-final when he capped off a bottom of the 6th rally with a 3-2 count walk-off single to send his team to the semi-finals.  What a great game and what a great season!




Grant can't believe he's out!
