Welcome πŸ™ to Monday Morning πŸŒ„ in the Land of Cavaliers ! Six contests on the calendar, three on the road and three on The Hill…Final week of the regular season begins today.

Β  Plus we honor πŸŽ– seven people across the afternoon and evening. Four Seniors, two dedicated Coaches and one Leader of our Academic Community.

Best of Luck to the Ladies headed to Radford tonight, making it Fellas Night on Campus.

Need to say God Bless you πŸ™ to all the folks that are working Non-Stop behind the scenes right now to make the upcoming Graduation πŸŽ“ ceremony POP!

Quick reminder to are invited Military guests that were joining us this past Saturday at Cavalier Park for the First Pitch. We will be conducting that ceremony this Friday evening at 4:45 pm, ahead of the game with James River High School

Cavalier Park

Get out there and have yourself a Blessed Day and we hope to see some folks later today !

The second half of the Monday Celebration can also be used as a tremendous example of the size of the Lake. After we honor Paul Marshall and Ethan Richardson we head across the Boulevard to do the same for Nathanael Dalton and Brayden Smoot.

When it comes to Brayden Smoot, Paul Marshall and Ethan Richardson, the common denominator for me is Anthony Barnes and Kris Richardson.

The number one thing that made Barnes the ultimate dance πŸ’ƒ partner is our common goal of what’s best for the Student Athlete, today and after graduation πŸŽ“. Through the efforts of Anthony Barnes, I have watched three of the four Student Athletes grow up and this is where the size of the Campus comes into play.

I could start talking and or typing right now and still be doing so tomorrow morning in regards to three of these four but I cannot do the same for Mr Dalton and because I am chasing EQUALITY, this is an issue for me. The desire to show appreciation for the group at the same level requires someone to help me out.

Here’s what I know about Nathanael Dalton. He is both a football player and a track athlete who hopes to be able to do both next year at the next level. He also spent some time in the Wrestling program. The young man will be there tomorrow night and when I am talking about him for his friends and family πŸ‘ͺ, I want it to sound just the same as when I do so about Brayden Smoot.

Most of the time that a team is holding a Senior Day everything is going to be time sensitive. That’s simply not to case tomorrow night as we honor these two young Men. The thought process of the entire evening is to try and make up for the fact that our Track and Field Athletes have not performed at home this season.

It’s two pairs of two and the goal is to maximize the moment for all four. I just need a little help from someone who can accurately describe what makes Nathanael Dalton tick. Why is this so important for me ? Because it is the bulk of the Mission, whenever possible, level the playing field for everyone.

Brayden will be a more easy flowing conversation because of the amount of time spent around him and his Family.

Just need a little nudge in the correct direction when we discuss Nathanael.

We will also be paying some extra intention to Miss Corrie Delp as the Junior is set to make the trip to Lynchburg for the third straight year.

Wrapping up the Weekend by getting ready for Monday afternoon πŸ™Œ

Thank You to both Anthony Barnes and Kris Richardson for getting involved with our efforts to make tomorrow’s events be as special as possible!

Thank You Craig Worrell πŸ™ for your thoughtful response to the High Jump storyline!

We hope that everyone who followed along today found a reason to smile about something that we touched on.

Got to get Lin to Physical Therapy in the morning πŸŒ„ and then to Ron’s shop to pick up our banner for the game. After that, its off to the races 🏁 in hopes of hitting all of our marks.

Have a Blessed πŸ™Œ πŸ™ Night πŸŒ™…
