Our time in Iowa has ended. We battled the whole game, but fell short to St. Francis in the first round. This group of seniors is one of the best classes our program has ever had. They are leaving a legacy of great basketball, phenomenal academics, and a lot of love!

This past weekend Coach Aubrey was inducted into the Carter County Sports Hall of Fame!
His wife, Sheri, had the privilege of inducting him. She’s the most committed Lady Buff fan around!
Varsity has had a solid start to the season, but let’s show this crew some love. JV has started the season at 4-0 and has another game coming up on Monday!
On Coach Ky’s Senior Day she announced that her goals included taking Coach Aubrey’s job. He’s helped her prepare for this role, and she attributes her readiness to his investment in her.

We had a great workout for our first Underclass ID Camp! New drills, lots of reps, and a few tips to help these athletes get to the next level.
