From Beth :

I worked concessions for the varsity girl’s game tonight, saw this on the way out and thought it was really sweet. Figured I’d share, in case you didn’t get one.

The excitement from the gym was pouring out in that last quarter and we heard the win in the concession room at the final buzzer.

Way to go ladies, it’s a great day to be a Cavalier!
