My favorite moment from @IchabodMBB's first round win over Harding:

Final minutes of the game, @cole_parker_12 scores his first collegiate three, and the bench goes NUTS.

Now that it's official, here's @CoachBBallard last week on being able to coach his son @kaden_ballard3 next season:

"You don't always get the opportunity to coach your own kid... I know mom's happy he's staying close to home."

Self on Washburn coach Brett Ballard: He was terrific. He was probably as good and responsible of an assistant as we've had. So, I want to see him do well, not at the expense of us, but hopefully it's a fun game for him and for us. #KUbball

Day 2 in Dublin. Started with the epic museum on Irish immigration. Then we got a guided tour of the city and St Patrick’s cathedral. Ended the night with Irish music and dancing. This group is pretty awesome!
