Every coach wants to coach players like
@MCzinano
. Fouled out in the natl championship game, yet how she carried herself was selfless and commendable. Encouraging her teammate sub, nodding at her coaches instead of pouting, clapping on the bench instead of sulking. A+ Leadership
Czinano fouls out and she doesn’t complain. Knowing how big the moment is, she walks over to her teammate and says “You got this.” love the leadership!!

I could watch
@DAEJAH_vue
hustle all day. The second O board was her 10th rebound (in the second quarter). She doesnt take plays off, her hustle is contagious and she makes our defense go. This is what playing hard looks like kids 😉
This is why a piece of my heart will always be with Drury University. Incredible. Humbled. Speechless. (and my players know that's hard to do to me). Memories and relationships that will last a life time...thank you.
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." Can I do both?? My DU fam gave me more joy than I ever thought possible this year. A true cohesive unit from our players to our fan support to our coaching staff to our faculty & administration. THANK YOU!❤🖤 Love u all!
This unscripted possession had one dribble....and it was the first one...in the backcourt. Love to see the basketball move and being shared this way 🤩 BEAutiful
Can't wait for that moment I get to step out from my office onto that balcony and overlook our state of the art practice facility. Gorgeous main court with 4 side hoops extending to a 3 point line. That's a thing of beauty!!

Simple solution in my mind:
Give the seniors an extra year. Either don’t count them towards scholarship limits or expand scholarship limits accordingly.

Which is more important:the journey or destination?
The company.
So much love & appreciation for current and former players and staff members. It’s moments like this I reflect and think, wow what a blessing each and every one of you have been! 💜

Congrats, coach!

Great team win and I'll enjoy it but something I'm enjoying a little more at this moment...as I walked out of the locker room one of our players says "pick up all your trash" echoed by "leave it nicer than when we found it". ❤ these kids ❤

Mr. Miller. A lot has happened in those 8 years, A LOT. So glad we get to share it all together ❤
The day after your season ends is never easy, but today was definitely made better by the news we just got! Our program just got better & our future is even brighter! This morning in the middle of a virtual campus tour, we got the best kind of surprise! So I am dancing today 💃

They are seriously amazing along with this SPECIAL team! ❤
Last year I missed every one of Crosby’s games on Sat. 🥺 so today I was probably the only parent in attendance overwhelmingly ecstatic for an 8am Saturday morning tip off before our practice. Sending some mid season love to all the moms in coaching. 💜 Yes that’s a shot fake 🫠
Love talking about our pressure defense! Can't wait to present at the Final 4 in Phoenix! It will be high energy and informative! Hope to see you all there!

@MollyMiller33
had to stay home instead of attending this game. Might wanna watch until the end to find out why ‼️👶‼️
“Mom can I play football with the boys on my basketball team”
“Cros you can do anything you put your mind to”
Sundays are now for flag football. Peep the fake pass and cutback run for the touchdown 🏈
My heart is so full
Move in week ✅
Start of workouts with the new squad ✅
First official visit (exceeded all expectations 💜🤘) ✅
Now capping off the end of an amazing week with some family time (dinner and splash pad 😊)
Thank you God for all our blessings 🙌
Add to the list of why this is such an amazing university. Here are 3 things Grand Canyon University is doing to contribute tocoronavirus relief efforts
1) GCU will begin production next week of personal protective equipment (PPE), such as masks and respirators.
Can’t wrap my head around not being able to see my child after her last day of school and talk about all the fun projects she did during the year Hugging her so tight & trying to hold back tears. We have to protect our children. Praying for the families affected in todays tragedy
Few pics in the thread of why programs are successful, so many people involved, way too many to name, but excited to continue on this journey with each and every one... Thankful to God for guiding me here and putting wonderful people in my life.
🚨NEW HEAD COACH🚨
WE ARE SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS‼️ Coach
@AmyEagan
, we couldn’t be more grateful of the opportunity you have been given to run our program. We know you are going to be an amazing head coach! Congratulations!!🥳

She isnt in the Drury 2,000 point 1,000 rebound club...she started the club! UNBELIEVABLE
@HDiestelkamp
. Your work ethic, humbleness, and effort to get there makes me the most proud! Congrats stud, you deserve it!
I'm so excited to go on this journey with these wonderful people by my side. They become family when they enter this basketball circle. Probably even more "duties as assigned" this year as they play step-in Aunts and Uncles to TWO little Millers. I am so thankful for each of you!
Two senior managers from the ‘Dream Team’ that I am extremely thankful for. Kate and Dustin, you’ve given so much to this program and we wouldn’t be successful without you! Lopes4Life!

Drama, determination, the big dance. After an incredible team effort, the Lady Panthers are going on to play their final game of the year on Friday! National Championship - let’s DU this‼️

For my first voting experience in AZ I decided I wanted to go to a church tucked in the mountains. The cherry on top... the old school basketball court I stumbled upon in the foothills & then it did something it never does here...a nice refreshing light rain as I took it all in
