from last saturday:

I know I should be writing something about my Honduras experience, but today, instead, I am going to write about basketball.  I did not get to watch any of VCU's previous tournament games, but I watched today's game.  I couldn't be prouder of my school and of the whole community of VCU basketball.  We played strong and hard, and while there can always be improvements, I am full of joy for them to have gotten so far.  I'm sad that today's game meant one of the mid-major teams had to go home, and Monday I will root for Butler.  But today, I'm proud to be a ram.
