Yep, tonight Stephanie went to her last prom, and we once again were there for pictures. Each year I get a picture taken with a group of my lacrosse players, and tonight it was with 5 of my 7 Seniors. It is always odd to see them this way. Normally they are all in uniforms or workout gear, with killer looks on their faces, trying to win games. Tonight they are just girls, heading to their last high school prom.

Oddly enough, all these girls and a team of others will meet me in Culver, Indiana to play two top ten teams in the morning. My guess is they will be tired…..BUT, they will be in their familiar uniforms and cleats. No heals, just athletes with a gritty determination to win a couple of important games.

Tonight I hope they have fun….especially Stephanie and the other seniors. I have enjoyed watching many of them grow up, and they are a fine group of girls. Keep them in your prayers though. These games tomorrow would be challenging even if they all went to bed early. Staying out late just makes it a harder day. They are remarkable young women though. I am sure they are up to the challenge!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless.
