It is with a heavy heart that we mourn the passing of Nikki McCray-Penson.
She was an incredible basketball coach and a true leader of women, but more importantly, she was a loving Mother and Wife.
Nikki and her family will continue to be in our hearts & in our prayers.

Don’t give Jeff Walz a timeout & a clipboard at the end of the game; he will put us in a position to win.
