A special thanks to Bob Tonini of Sacred Heart, who provided the statistics
for tonight’s game. On a side note,
I was sorry to hear of the season-ending knee injury to Sacred Heart’s 5-7 Sr. Krisha
Byron. Ms. Byron was a deadly
outside shooter and could thread the needle with a pass. While Sacred Heart is a very talented
and deep squad, Krisha will be missed.
Best of luck as she rehabs her knee to prepare for her college career at
Campbellsville. My thoughts and
prayers are with Ms. Byron and her family.
