As I'm sure most of you know, we suffered our toughest loss of the year last night to John Carroll. It was an abrupt end to a successful season and I don't think anyone was ready for the ride to be over. With that said, the loss last night in no way portrays the season that we had. 5 months ago we started preseason, and from the first morning workout through the last minutes of the game last night, we gave all that we had in order to help better our team. We were a team this year with a lot of heart and that showed not only in our 18 wins but each and every day since that first workout. Everyone worked extremely hard toward our ultimate goal of getting better each time we stepped on the court, and we certainly reached that goal. All 19 girls on the team pulled together, no matter their role, and did their part to make sure that we got better each day, and in that regard we succeeded. We will never have this same exact group of girls again, and I am so grateful that I was able to be a part of it. To our seniors, Ali and Schroeder, thank you so much for what you have done for this program in your 4 years. You both worked extremely hard and have certainly left your mark on BW basketball. You guys will be missed so much next year. I also wanted to thank everyone who came to our games and followed our team throughout the year. We are all so grateful for the level of support that we were given, and it helped to make the season one to remember. The loss is still fresh now, but I know I will always be able to look back and remember all of the different components, on and off the court, that made this year so special. "19 strong, in glory and defeat"
