My son was a Sr.'03. Before the start of the last home game , the coach gave each Sr. a ball. They were told to write a message to their parents on the ball. Each boy persented the ball to his parents on the field right before the start of the game. My son , a man a few words and even fewer emotions, almost ran out of room to write all he wanted to. That ball is one of my most prized possessions. On that ball he was able to say all the things he has a hard time saying out loud.
