Graduation-Keep Moving

On May 26, four of our players graduated . That's the biggest class since 1996.  As I have told them all, four years zoomed by.  Now they are on their own without the comfort and security of the college life.  All have plans, Jill is going to VCU to get her Masters in Social Work; Taylor twill be taking over the office managing her Dad's business; Molly is headed back to Floyd, but will be an Assistant Coach for Roanoke Catholic; and Maggie is waiting to hear from UNC-G after her recent change in plans to pursue athletics.  It's hard to believe they are moving on, but that's life, right?  Things keep moving whether we want them to or not.  We wish the best for them and Godspeed.  It was nice to see their teammates and former teammates on campus to celebrate with them on Saturday.  And so now, I guess, summer begins.  I am off again this year coaching a team with USA Athletes to Ireland.  I will update you upon my return as I am sure the experience will be splendid.
