So much has happened this season and I think its safe to say that we have grown so much as a team. Thinking about how we played back in December to now is like night and day. Even though we lost to Drake last weekend, our team has a lot of confidence going into the tournament. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day and I know that right now we have the deepest team in the Valley. On top of that we are a team that has handled all sorts of adversity this season. We have been able to bounce back from some bad losses and pull off some pretty amazing wins. When it comes to tournaments and playing three games in three days, the toughest team (both physically AND mentally) will win and I think that is us. I don’t know about all of you but I’m pretty excited to get this tournament going!!

I think a congratulations are also in order for my fellow sophomore Carli Tritz bouncing back from knee surgery at the beginning of the season to making first team all-Valley! We could not be more proud of you!

Now all of you should stop reading this blog and get in your cars and head to St. Charles! We look forward to seeing all of our fans there! We are so blessed to have had all of your love and support this season! Jay fans are the best fans! Thank you all and see you soon!
