Parent's Weekend and Miami games

This weekend at the University of Dayton, it was Parent's weekend, but it was more important since it is senior year! Being five minutes away from home, I see my mom a lot, but it was fun to have her come down to campus and hang out with me and do stuff we don't typically do.

Saturday, we played Miami University (of Ohio), and everybody had their families there so it was great to have so much support, but unfortunately, we lost both of our games. The first game, we lost 5-1 and the second game we got run-ruled 10-0.

After the games, I ran home, got ready and my mom came down to campus. We went to Dana's house (my roommate from sophomore year) and it was so much fun! Her parents were there and one of our other past roommates Becky was there with her parents, and it was a lot of fun!

After dinner at Becky's, Mom and I headed to the basketball game. UD was playing Findlay and we ended up winning 87-66.

We even got a picture of Mom with Rudy! 

After the game, we headed to The Fieldhouse or The Shed as she knew it. We got the famous fishbowl (lots of liquor and straws) and hung out for awhile. After The Fieldhouse, we headed to Timothy's Bar and Grill. Mom wanted to go see if it was still as bad as when she was 18 years old, and she said it was just as bad, however, I believe it was probably worse!

Sunday, we had our final game of the season against Miami. We haven't beat them in four years, and we played AMAZING! I couldn't have asked for a better end to the season! We beat them 9-7 and everybody played fantastic! 

One of the freshman, Livy, played AMAZING! She had so many plays that if they weren't made could have cost us the game, so I awarded her with the BIGGEST hug! :)

It was such a great weekend and that's really all there is to it. Thanks to all the parents and siblings and friends that came out to show us your support this weekend! You all mean the world to us!
