Blogging Across Europe With Krista Gross - Entry Four
June 12, 2012 | Women's Basketball

Entry #4 - June 12, 2012
I definitely enjoyed the few days I had with my family but its back to practice because it's game day tomorrow!!
We play Luxembourg tomorrow to start off our qualifying games. From here on out all these games are important and must-win games! We should be able to win tomorrow so we just have to make sure we do what we need to do.
We are playing to qualify for next year's European championships next year in Paris. The top two teams out of us, Luxembourg, Italy, Greece, and Latvia qualify. We play each team twice (once home and once away) so we just have to keep winning! :)
