Last Saturday, Joshua's YBA (AAU) team had their free throw shooting fundraiser. All players shot 100 freethrows on regulation hoops. In the weeks prior to that day, the player's collected sponsors to raise monies to offset costs of tournament fees,club fees, uniforms, etc. Sponsors were given the choice to either donate a flat rate or a rate based on how many free throws were made.

Everyone who knows Joshua, knows that he's a sharp shooter! The team expected him to get a high score. Our family and friends who sponsored Joshua also knew he would score well, but I don't think ANYONE was expecting him to do as well as he did! Joshua made a total of 85 out of 100 freethrows!!! That's amazing and very difficult to do. That's 85% from the free throw line! Michael Jordan's free throw percentage is .835! Hehe. It was very impressive!

Joshua earned A LOT of money due to the extremely generous offers from his sponsors. Thank you to all of you who supported and sponsored Joshua. Sorry you had to pay him so much! Thank you to Ami & Papa, Grandma & Bumpa, the Nagahiros(Hawaii) , the Matsuuras(Hawaii), Suzanne, Seiji(Hawaii), Aunty Mimi(Hawaii), Donnie, Lisa, Alex & Marisa(CO), Kev, Tracy, Emma, Hannah, & Sarah(CO), the Laus(HI), the Itagakis, the Changs, and the Yoshimuras(HI).

Bryson: 61
Alex: 52
Grant: 52
