Man, what a tough way to end a great season.
Keep your heads up, girls. You have accomplished more than you’ll know for a great many years. Those of you who come back next year have another shot. Those who graduate have great memories and should have much bolstered self-esteem through real achievement. No one can take that from you.
Take heart from the University of Maine women’s basketball team, which came within one point last March of making the NCAA tournament. Terribly dispiriting loss, and eight players graduated and don’t have another shot at the Big Dance. But, what a run they had.
And what a run you have had. Congratulations on a wonderful season. Lots of people you don’t even know are proud of you.
