Fearless and True
I have gotten a little behind on the thank you blogs lately.
The Auburn Women's Basketball brought a new level of fun this past season. Most Sunday afternoons, I watched WBB and when Auburn was playing, it was definitely a bonus. The group of seniors were really special to the program. Coach Flo and these seniors have brought a shift in the Auburn WBB program. These seniors have been amazing! It was so much fun to watch this team dance and win all along the way. This team was really special and I know these girls have blazed a path for others to follow. These seniors deserve a special thank you. Even though they did not go as far as they wanted to in the tournament, it was a joy to see them get in and a joy to see them play. I cannot wait to see what they can do next year.

A very special Senior Thank You!
Erica Sanders: I know things were not always easy for you, but you never took the easy path. You kept working. You kept your head up. I know that you are going to be successful whatever you do. Take these things that you have learned and done at Auburn and carry them with you wherever you go. Thank you so much for everything you did for Auburn. Women's sports do not always get a lot of attention. I appreciate your blood, sweat and tears that you left on the court. Things are definitely changing in Auburn Women's Basketball, and one day I believe they will go all the way. When they do, we can look back to what this group of seniors did. Thank you so much. It was a ton of fun to watch. I know you are going to do great things. Be sure to come visit us soon. You will always have a home at Auburn! War Eagle!
Emari Jones: My nieces play softball. They have never played basketball, but they really enjoyed watching you. They were pretty devastated when you got injured.
