Wrong is wrong. We need to stop racism. Period. We need more than words. No excuses. Teach your children the difference between right and wrong. Educate! Be part of the change! #BlackLivesMatter.

Coaches hear the word transition and think uptempo break…except college coaches at this time of the year. Transition can also mean change. Change w/ a lot of emotions when you’ve been invested. Fortunately it’s a time to reflect, remember our WHY, and be ready for next #grateful.

Crossing the Pennsylvania border! Proud to be from the Keystone State for many reasons. Remembering the welcome sign that said “You’ve got a friend in Pennsylvania “ that always made me smile traveling home from college. Love the new sign “Pursue your happiness.”.
