ISSEA: International Schools of South and East Africa

If anyone didn't know, Dad decided to take a coaching job in Uganda, just like he did in the States. He assistant coaches the ISSEA girls basketball team, and just got back from the tournament in Dar es Saalam in Tanzania. This is the high school team that "travels East Africa" like Mom had said. They came 5th out of 6, but did a pretty good job, considering that one of their best players was out for the tournament in the first game, tearing 3 ligaments in her leg/ankle.

Well it looks like the Campbell family continues to lead it's fast paced and exciting life no matter where you call home. Next we will hear that you are touring as a singing group, with Jack in the lead. All is quiet on our home front, darn it. Love, Aunt Eileen in California

A touring band would be a great idea. "Zoom, zoom, zoom..."

ISSEA- Is this one school that covers all of the south and east of Africa.
Was this a tournament of the playoffs?
Thomas-- How is your team doing?
Who else is playing hoops?
Is Matt still the frogman of Uganda?
We can see that Jack is the musicman and wonder if JT has become the Quietman?

Thomas,
g'mom wants to know if you received the chocolate crinkles.
and let us know when a package arrives so we can tell how long it takes.Is is safe to say that if I pick NC in round one and they win that I (like everyone else) will have 2 points.My 5/12 pick is Villanova. So I start off with 13 points? Do I get 18 points for picking Mt.St. Mary over Coppin (assuming they win)
