Netting 1,000
1,000 points! Two of our athletes recently reached this admirable milestone in their basketball careers. Sarah Ringer sank number 1,000 on Jan. 13. Jared Yoder netted his thousandth just last night. Now, both are among an elite few at Messiah to accomplish this feat. I’m impressed. I think the only time “1,000 points” would be associated with my name would be if I had a month’s worth of good Scrabble games against my husband!
Separate from individual accomplishments, both men’s and women’s basketball are having terrific seasons. Both teams are undefeated in their conference. Overall, the women are sporting a 17-1 record and the men are 13-4. Check out the great coverage both teams got in the local newspapers today – the Harrisburg Patriot-News and the Carlisle Sentinel.
