One Happy Family: Tori Wyss with Grandma Pat and, Dad, Todd, and Aunt LuAnn. Watch out world...another Wyss is on the way, Haley, an Ada High School senior, who may study nursing but hasn't decided on a college yet. Monty Siekerman took this photo and offers viewers several more photos of Friday night's ONU women's victory.
Monty Siekerman shares his photos from Friday night's ONU women's victory below:
• Celebration huddle after the game in mid court. The ONU women owned the court Saturday night, decisively beating a team which had only 1 loss all season.
• Standing next to the trophy in King Horn, are Joe Campoli, coach of the 1993 ONU men's basketball team which won the NCAA Division III national tournament, and ONU coach head women's coach Michelle Durand, who just might take home a similar trophy next weekend. When the women win (hopefully) Saturday at King Horn, it's off to the Final Four in Grand Rapids, Mich.
