Ten years ago, I was starting my senior year of high school and was getting ready to start my last season of basketball. In March of 2000 we ended our season 22-3 and won the 5A State championship. Such an awesome experience with some of my very good friends from high school. Last summer I got an email from our coach that we were chosen to be inducted into the Topeka West High School Athletic Hall of Fame...what an honor! My coach also asked me to give the acceptance speech for our team.
Thursday night we all came with our families and went to the induction ceremony at the high school. It was really great to see everyone! Last night, they introduced all of the inductees at the high school football game at halftime. Several girls from our team came and we went our for a bit afterwards. Here are some pictures...
Our 3 coaches at the ceremony, including Coach Goehring introducing our team...Coach Murray and Svaty with him...
Me giving the acceptance speech....glad that's over!
