Team and coaches deserve accolades

I would like to congratulate all of the Fighting Tiger players and coaches for the successful 7-3 season just completed.
You achieved you goals of the OVC championship and a playoff berth despite the enormous amount of injures sustained throughout the season.
The players and coaches have done a remarkable job of shifting players to new positions each week to make the team competitive. This is an example of what hard work, sacrifice, dedication and discipline will do to achieve a successful ending.
Congratulations to the senior leadership for setting the standard of play expected and for developing the “band of brothers” attitude that kept things on paint throughout the season.
Thanks to all the coaches for their time and patience. As a spectator, I have enjoyed watching the growth, development and toughness these young Tigers have displayed through the season.
Be proud of what you have accomplished and have a great run in the playoffs.
