Obie9 and I were trying to figure out how many years we've been going to the Hardwood dinner... Too many to count!

I always love JB's player intro's. His sense of humor always shines through. It has been awhile since I've seen him choke up about exiting players.  A true testimate to Cooney & G and who they are as people as much as players . Say what you want about TC but he bleeds orange and has an outstanding work ethic. G has improved tremendously and had been our MVP all year. We can't wait to follow him in the Olympics this summer.

It was great to see Craig back being honored for not only his scholar- athletic accomplishments, but his dedication to his career outside of Badketball . From a fellow principal, I can attest to the fact that he works harder every day now than he ever did!

The silent auction to benefit the Conrad McCrea scholarship fund is always a favorite...however I personally think the items up for bid have gone down in quality in the past couple years. There is an autograph line... Buy a poster and take it down a line to have players sign. Great way for kids to meet players but used to be able to take an item of your own through too. No longer allowed to do that so players are approached all through dinner.

Always love the highlight reel, the staff does a nice job every year. Senior player remarks are good... Christian, Trevor and Mike all did a nice job.

Oh... Food is usually awful. We have often eaten afterward.

It is a great way to end regular season & wish the team well in the post season.  Go Orange, beat Pitt ... And the rest off them too!
