Is it really the end?

I have purposefully delayed this blog entry because I didn't want to face the fact that this basketball season is winding down rather fast and I am not sure I am like it. I have a love hate relationship with March. Love because of the madness and the endless games I can watch. Hate, because of the senior nights the fact that I will have to wait another 7 months before I am back in the Spectrum.

I was not able to attend the final home game this year due to other commitments that I had. It was a downer, but I have learned that there are indeed more important things than basketball. Shocker I know!! I am super proud with the way the team ended the regular season. Wins are wins in my book. I would just like to give a huge shot out to Spencer Butterfield for his 20 rebounds against Texas State March 7th. That is impressive. That guy plays hard basketball and I really enjoy watching him play.

With Saturday's win the Aggies notched there 21st win this season and also the Aggie basketball program earned its 1,500th win. That is pretty neat. Who knew that we would get 21 wins after all of the adversity this team experienced? I mean that is pretty neat.

All-WAC honors were handed out on Sunday. Two Aggies (Spencer and Jarred) received All-WAC 2nd team honors as well as named to the All-Newcomer Team. I read that this is the first time in 14 years we did not have a 1st Team All-Conference team. I guess that can be attributed to the fact that those in the running were sitting on the bench for the last half of conference play.

Thursday night the Aggies play number 4 seed UT Arlington at 9:30 Utah time in a first round match-up in the WAC tournament.Coach Morrill every year says that the tournament is a new season and anything can happen. So let the Madness begin!

I am still available if anyone needs to fill a seat down to Las Vegas....
