We had a disappointing loss in the O.D.A.C. tournament last week. The Eagles just picked a bad day not to play well. I give Guilford credit …they executed and hit some 3’s. GC never got rattled when we were up 12, they ran their offense and hit some shots. We on the other hand did have plenty of chances to win that game. Missed box outs, missed shots, missed opportunities…they all hurt us and after reflecting on it over the weekend we can’t let that one game get us down. We won 22 games!! It has been a L-O-N-G time since we won 20+ games.
Congratulations to Jordan Burkholder for her Player of the Year award. BC has not had a POY since 1983 and Jordan makes only the second POY in our history with the O.D.A.C. She had a stellar career at BC and the honor was well-deserved. Also kudos to Coach Jean Willi on her Coach of the Year award. After being picked #4 in the pre-season coaches’ poll, Coach Willi led her team to a first place tie in the O.D.A.C. regular season.
Ending the season is tough but what makes it tougher, is having to say good-bye to your seniors. Young ladies that have given you four years and have matured into citizens our program can be proud of. Our five seniors this year are: Lacey Barnett, Emileigh Lambert, Brittani Criss, Bianca Booker, and Jordan Burkholder. We have nothing but best wishes to all of them in their future endeavors.
Good luck to all our spring sports on their quest for an O.D.A.C. title!! We’ll be there supporting each team!!
As always …GO EAGLES!!
