I made it back to campus just in time to celebrate the Class of 2026 this Friday! After a well-needed facelift I am ready to shine bright again; hope you get a chance to see me as you travel the Court Street side of campus!
It's Senior Night in Softball! Come out and support the Lady Dragons and our Seniors!
