Thanks for keeping us informed, Alyson. You do a great job with this blog. I’ve loved the pictures, too. Thoughts and prayers to the Boone family.
Are the players into the NCAA basketball tournament? With the Sweet 16 scheduled to start tonight, it got me to wondering.
Thanks for the info Alyson. Our prayers are with Aaron…
jch, yes, the players are very much into the tournament. It’s a big conversation piece every year as guys fill out their brackets.
I’m sure a fair amount of razzing goes on as one player’s former college goes against another player’s former college as well.
Prayers for Aaron… I had mitral valve surgery a couple of years back (same Dr. as Barbara Bush), and I’m as good as ever. I’m sure Aaron will be, too.
