Wow....tough read about one of our assistants

Assistant coach/personal assistant Sara Jones. Losing battle with terminal cancer, but still giving everything she has to the LM team. Great article - inspiring story.

For as many tough things as we have seen this basketball season, none of it really matters when you hear a story like this.

Really great, but tough story. Best wishes to Sara and the team. Barefoot seems exceptional.

From the LM Facebook:

Quote:Tough news for all Lady Monarch fans as Sara Jones passed away this morning at the age of 40 after her 12-year battle with cancer. She will be missed but her spirit and inspiration will always be in all the players, coaches, staff and fans she has touched #ODUSports #ODUWBB

Very sad.

Oh my goodness....wow. One day after that front page story was run. Very sad.

Lady monarchs and coach Barefoot could use our support on Sunday.
