The Hortons as Sports Fans

Our family likes to go to watch sporting events. Baseball season is our favorite time of the year! We see nearly every Columbus Clippers home game. As the players grow, lots of our favorite Clippers wind up playing for the New York Yankees, their parent club. We've watched Andy Pettite, Bernie Williams, Hideki Irabu, Orlando "el Duque" Hernandez, Ramiro Mendoza, Jorge Posada, Mariano Rivera, and our favorite, 1996 Columbus Clipper of the year Derek Jeter. We're still watching players like Nick Johnson and Drew Henson play in Columbus!

In the winter, we enjoy women's basketball. We had season tickets to the Columbus Quest, the only team to win every championship in the 2 1/3 year history of the American Basketball League. It was a sad day when the league folded. We also enjoy watching the Capital Crusaders who have been to the NCAA Div III Final Four 3 times in the last 6 years.
