Aubrey Bruin Basketball

Aubrey's freshman basketball season was rough. So much so, she decided at the end of the season that she is done playing basketball. She made the JV team with several of her basketball friends but ended up playing with the JV2 team for most games and then playing a tiny bit in the JV games. At Barlow there are only three girls teams, not four like the boys, and the talent pool is much more shallow, with big gaps in skills. The JV2 team was not good and some of the girls were decidedly not nice. Aubrey got to know a couple girls who were nice, and she persevered, but she just didn't enjoy it. The coaches had Aubrey playing down with JV2 to help them out and to give her more experience and playing time. Some of the girls had never played basketball before, though, and it was frustrating when the girls couldn't get to the ball down the court. They lost most of their games and by a lot. The worst one was 5-51--just painful! So, it just was not a fun season. She decided she'd rather focus on water polo and tennis.
