Senior Day, Courage and Overheads - Oct 16, 2007
posted by: Josh
North Carolina sophomore Danielle Forword teaches us another lesson about field hockey and intercollegiate athletics. Emotions of excitement, reminiscence and sadness filled the Tar Heel locker room on Senior Day, a game against Radford on Oct. 7. An amazing senior class of seven, consisting of Miss Authentic, Miss Intensity, Miss Leadership, Miss Tenacious, Miss Humor, Miss Love and Miss Kindness create a perfect mix of role models, friends, leaders and teammates. The rest of the team turned the locker room into a bundle of streamers, balloons, posters, photographs and memories, a ritual that has been carried out for many years. The seniors were honored for their dedication and love for Carolina field hockey. I speak on behalf of the team when I say a sense of pride and awe filled our hearts when looking at our seven seniors who have all achieved, given and done so much. Whilst standing there holding back the teardrops, I had to remind myself that it may be the end of our intertwining hockey careers but it’s the beginning of another chapter of friendship. The amazing thing about our family is that no matter how far or how long it has been, we always reunite and rekindle those friendships and memories that were made.

The only AD in the world that doesn't have a short list of replacements for each and every one of his/her coaches is the one who will be fired next week for incompetence.
