Wow is right, looked they had snagged defeat from the jaws of victory But Taylor hits the shot of the year and pull away in OT. A great group of girls and great coaching staff, couldn't be happier for them. Wasn't expecting this, this year but will definitely take it.

Changed up the header image in honor of the big win. You might have to refresh the homepage to see it if you're still seeing the football field.

Any idea what time they'll be back and if there will be a welcome back party?

I listened to the extended post-game show on the radio, and nothing was mentioned.

It's 500 miles to Sioux Falls. So that equates to an 8-hour bus trip.
