The women's basketball team from my alma mater, Ashland University, won the Division II national championship yesterday. How awesome is that? Looks like they got home today to adoring fans.
As is typical of March, people are following college basketball and picking brackets and winners. While I don't do it, it's neat that the school that I went to had a team go all the way to the end. And given my history of coaching girls, and being an advocate of girl power, even better that it was the female team.
I have to admit that my AU pride really doesn't go much beyond the sticker in the back window of my car. My four years there were among the most intense of my life (in a tie with the 2009 to 2013 period I'm in now), and there were such awesome times and difficult times. I don't like who I was back then, but I'm thankful for the experience because it influenced me positively in the long run.
My school has a new NCAA championship trophy.
