I would like to take this opportunity to thank Eagle Productions and the Nininger Nuts for their involvement in our “white out” game on Saturday. As a coach I really appreciate all the hard work these two groups did to get community and student involvement to our games. It was a great atmosphere to sit on the sidelines and see so much white in the stands!! Unfortunately Coach Willi didn’t find her John Travolta style white suit. HaHa!!
We went 2-1 last week with wins over Lynchburg and Hollins and a loss to W & L. Last night we lost a tough game to league-leading Roanoke and on Thursday we will step out of conference to face NAIA opponent Southern Virginia. We’ll then have the weekend off before the final push of the regular season.
It’s hard to believe that we only have 12 games left …that our season is half-way over. As coaches, we are going to do our best to really push the players during this last stretch and continue to find ways to improve as a team and individuals.
Mark your calendars for February 13th. That will be our Pink Zone game. We ask fans to wear pink and make a $2 donation for admission to the game. There will also be a raffle for door prizes at half-time of the women’s game. Raffle tickets will be $3 for one or two for $5. We will also have a donation box set up at the gate for anyone interested in making a donation. All proceeds from the game will go to the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund.
