What a great time last night with the kids, parents and directors of PARDS in Denham Springs! I very much enjoyed myself for a lot of reasons. First and foremost it brought back great memories of a special Lady Tiger -- Katrina Hibbert. We first started our relationship with PARDS because Katrina had played at Denham Springs High School and it was an annual event in those days to take Katrina and the Lady Tigers there to spend some time with the kids of PARDS. We also had some surprise guest last night. Delia Taylor, another Lady Tiger alumni who resides in the Denham Springs area came by with her husband and daughter. She was kind enough to take some time at the end and talk to our team. It is invaluable to me that our current players hear from those who paid a price and sacrificed for us to have an elite program now. We were also visited by Tasmin Mitchell's grandmother. Tasmin of course was also a standout at DSHS and you can tell his smile and personality has been handed down from his grandmother.
