There was a sports competition with 15 schools from around the area. Rob received second place in the 3000m race! If you notice it says Mugumya Richard. Richard is his late brother whom we lost in January, he ran the race in his brother's memory, even to the extent of changing his name. You may recall the story: http://hewillprovide.blogspot.com/2010/01/please-pray-for-us.html
Our school won several of the competitions, including the relay race, but only the one who finishes the race gets the certificate, Matthew was the second position runner in the relay race, and as we all know each person in a relay race is important. About not receiving a certificate he said; "It doesn't matter because our school won the cup!" Good attitude! Gotta love the sportsmanship!
