Thanks guys....

I so enjoy this. It's really a great learning experience with the various gyms and trying to get exposure right in them. Like I already know that home games are useless for me at the high school because we have such awful lighting in there; whereas the middle school has slightly better lighting and that neither is the best lit gym for any of the schools that we play at.
