Jack's basketball and tennis

Jack has been playing lots of basketball and tennis this winter.  He's been playing on his CYC basketball team and another team, the Dragons.
He has also been playing in as many tennis tournaments as possible.  It's hard to find the time to fit the tournaments in, but we've been trying.  In the last two tournaments, the championship has came down to Jack and our friend Nick.  They are VERY comparable players, but Jack has somehow come out on top in both tournaments.
He struggles with his intensity/temper on a tennis court.  We've been trying to really work on that and see if we can get him to reel in his emotions....it's so hard for him.  He wants to and understands when we tell him he HAS to, but then in the thick of it, he just can't help himself.  He is a fierce competitor!  As Mike says, "I can't stand that he's like that, but I wouldn't be able to stand it if he didn't care that much either."  I'm hoping we find a happy, medium soon!  He absolutely LOVES playing tennis!!
