One of the great privileges I’ve ever had in my life was in 2008 when I was the play by play man for the LADY Jackets when they won the National Championship up in Hope, Michigan. What a thrill it was for me and I could probably say the same thing about the coaches and the girls and the whole traveling party. It was unbelievable and I never will forget the young ladies like Stacey Blalock, Hope Hohertz, Kim Hoffman, Stephanie Brewer, Makiesha Davis, Mionca Hall, Elaine Hobbs, Sarah Pfiester, Daphnie Pippins, Katy Sarem, Tiffany Warner and what was that little short girl’s name – oh yeah, I remember, Meia Daniels. All Meia did was get Player of the Year honors and All American first team. Chris Kielsmeier got Coach of the Year, and so forth and so on.

In our clothing, carpets, and curtains, bed sheets, blankets, and bath towels, they stay mostly in the background. But every so often they deserve and demand our full attention as works of fine art.
