What a beautiful day today in the Valley ...lots of sunshine!! Everyone has returned from spring break and now there's that last push until the end!! All our spring sports are in action and I wish them much success. It's great to go out and catch a game and see so many of our players there supporting other teams.
I have been working on our Facebook page and I encourage all my followers to join our fan page - Bridgewater College women's basketball. It will be a great way for you to stay in touch with the ins and outs of our program.
This is my favorite time of year - basketball on television seven days a week. The men's and women's NCAA tournament is always an exciting time. It's great to pull for the underdogs. On the men's side I like Cornell and Northern Iowa. What a great Cinderella story!! In the women's tourney I still don't think anyone can beat UCONN but I like that Tennessee might face them in the semi-finals. Two great teams, two great coaches, and lots of winning in each program. That could be an exciting game. The other team I like is Gonzaga. We don't get to see them play here on the East Coast but what a good team ...I have enjoyed watching them the first two rounds.
Then there is the NIT ...my Tar Heels are still playing and that's a good thing. :) So are the VT Hokies. In the women's NIT my friend Bonnie Henrickson has the KU Jayhawks still playing!!
It's a great time to be a basketball fan!
Good luck to all our spring sports! Now that the weather is warming up I hope to see some of you in the stands!! As always ...GO EAGLES!!
