There was another strong showing of fans at Elise's last college basketball game. She had several high school friends, parents of friends, colleagues from Under Armour, and lots of family including Carol and Jonathan. Gary's sister Aileen and her husband, Kevin, were cheering her on, as well as her Uncle Marty.
The game was at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore so it was easy for local folks to attend. Unfortunately they lost, but when Elise came out of the game with about a minute and a half left, she got a standing ovation. I'm told someone took a picture of me crying just then. (Me, crying? What a shock!)
The Hopkins coach offered her a volunteer assistant coaching job if she stays in the area, and it looks like she may end up at Under Armour after school which would work out well.
She was headed back to Washington College for the "Birthday Ball" in honor of George. It's a huge celebration for the college and the community.
