How to start a game:



Selena Freeman of Martinsville and Morgan Groover of Elwood prepare for battle with the Memphis Waves in Springfield, Missouri at the Tournament of Champions. They knew if they played well, they'd have more of a good time at Lambert's after the game!

On the opening tip against Memphis, Morgan Groover of Elwood swats ball in the direction of Leah Phillips of Castle.
