What You’re Thinking Going Into Your Final Game:

“I am thinking about how great it has been playing a sport I love on a team that I call family. Basketball has influenced my life so much, and I would like to think it has helped me grow into a better person. I am so blessed to have had this opportunity, and I will always cherish my four years as a member of the Swat Team.”
