Head Coach Rick Nester has set a cutoff date of September 11th for commitments from former Lady Cavaliers Softball players to sign up for the event.
” The amount of prep work that goes into planning for an event like this creates a need to confirm that we have enough players to move forward,” said Coach Nester. ” The Concession stand is one of the bigger things that has to be nailed down.”
The freshly tweaked format will have the current players hosting the Alumni and players can sign up by contacting either Coach or Emma Leath at the numbers listed above.
If you are interested in playing or know someone who might be, please 🙏 phone your friend to extend the invitation !
Another group of 20+ made it to the gym again, with the theme being Lucky Charms. It’s fitting because it has been a magical time this week for our group !
PSALMS 30:12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my GOD, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
2 – 4 pm today !
It turns out that our main man, Bill Gallimore, and I spent time on the same Air Force Base in Germany 🇩🇪. Que up Huey Lewis singing ” Small World “. The difference between the time there is Mr Gallimore was stationed in Germany and I was visiting Germany.
The last four days have been interesting as the folks at Duke University Medical sent someone out to wire up Lin’s brain for four days and three nights in the hope of learning more about the problem we are facing. Feeling blessed to have that level of care available, but it kept us in-house from start to finish. Actually, it forced Lin to stay here, and me doing so was by choice.
Getting back outside will be refreshing for sure !
I have stumbled across a new author who left quite the impression on me! I am not sure how often this young lady puts pen to paper, but WOW, when she does !! I believe her name is Monica Thompson…

There are three terrific reasons to grab the passport and head over to Germany for the FIBA tournament that begins at the end of the week.
Reason # 1 – Kelsey Plum will always remain in the top spot of female athletes for me, and if her lower leg 🦵 injury allows, she will once again be putting her talents on display. Plum turned 32 this week, which in real life is still relatively young, but by Basketball standards, not so much.
Reason #2 – Coach Lawson is leading the team once again, so that means that my favorite coach in the sport will also be making the trek over to Europe 🇪🇺. The fact that Lawson is at Duke University might have led me to pay more attention to her initially, but the fact that she is the real deal as a leader is the most important part of the equation.
Reason #3 – If Plum is my All-Time favorite women’s player, then Chelsea Gray is my favorite one to wear the colors at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Gray is 33 years old now, and like Plum, this figures to be her final opportunity.
The only reason for not going can best be summed up by borrowing from one of the Indiana Jones movies. ” Snakes 🐍, why did it have to be Snakes 🐍?”
Germany 🇩🇪, why does it have to be Germany 🇩🇪 ?
The initial trip to Germany years ago was to visit one of the children who was stationed there at the time, and it makes the one and done list. Driving 🚗 on the Autobahn was a blast, but if there’s going to be another 12 hour flight ✈️ somewhere, it won’t be back to Berlin.
Lawson coaching both Plum and Gray will be priceless to watch, even if it’s just on a television 📺…
