Coach Bourn always shared “the LOVE game” with every one of his teams at Milligan. From Fresh. to Sen. yr, players tears grew as their understanding and love had grown. Coach Bourn always cried when he read through 1 Cor. 13, but he held it together on this last one.

We lost Coach Bourn this past week. We’re devastated as his passing, but we know he is with the Lord in Heaven. Around 40 players were able to attend the funeral on Friday. That certainly speaks to his legacy. #TeammatesforLife #BuffsforLife

These ladies have shared their stories, offered personal finance lessons, created internships, taken our players out to meals for one on one mentorship, and have even helped one of our players get a job after graduation. We are so thankful for these women!

Let’s thank some of our Guest Coaches from this past. Our Guest Coach Program is a way to connect our players with excellent women in our region with the hope of inspiration, mentorship, and connection.

Another successful semester for the Lady Buffs!
5 players with 4.0s and a team GPA of 3.7!

6 additional players earned a 3.9+ GPA this semester, which is certainly worth mentioning: Nina, Bailey, Callie, Cora, Mak, and Kelsey.

Enjoy retirement!

Lady Buffs and Buff Nation please show your appreciation to Coach Bourn. After 12 seasons as Assistant Coach, he has decided to step down from his role.

“Senior Retreat!”

Well it wasn’t a whole retreat, but the seniors and coaches spent all day meeting about next season. From picking new uniforms to connecting with teammates to planning community service and a lot more…. We’re excited for their leadership and legacy.
