      Shooting D

      We basically showed up late for class, showed up everyday after, did good on the mid term, but bricked (literally) the essay portion of the final.

        Rough season albeit successful due to the determination and grit from Coach Marshall, assistant coaches and all the players.

        Let's see...we had news from Cleanthony being shot to Antoine's house being burnt down to Fred's hammy all before the season even really got started.

        Then we had what felt like nightly beat downs of Valley foes by what seemed like 20 points to once again be forced to participate in the Elgin induced "get me two teams from my conference to the NCAA tourney" trip that sent the Shockers down the traveling-scheduling abyss known as the play-in round.

        All in all...I give the grade of A+!!! Against a lot of odds...we were 1 game away from another Sweet-16. We'll done Shockers! Well done!

          I'd concur that the performance rates an A-something overall, but I'd probably give an A-, but isn't it great to see grades of Bs and Cs assessed to a team that WON the Valley season and WON two games in the NCAA? Just think about that for a few minutes, days, weeks months as we approach next year.
