Finally!

As part of the ceremony, Mast Daugherty’s iconic No. 40 jersey will be raised to permanently hang in the rafters of the Convocation Center.

Agreed but who was the knucklehead that picked that day. It's the first day of spring break and the students will be gone - again.

At last, Caroline is getting the recognition she deserves! Thanks to all of you who kept bringing this issue up year after year while the powers that be continued to spin their administrative wheels. It's hard to justify ignoring the best basketball player to ever step on the court in a Bobcat uniform. Well done, Caroline, can't wait to see that banner hanging from the rafters!

Same thing happened last year - senior day was during spring break. It's due to what OCF calls our faux semester schedule.

Yes, real semesters would have Spring in March where it belongs.

OT: Sitting here watching the end of the Mets-Dodgers game. Mets just won. Its revenge time. We Cubs fans remember '69. Go CUBS! Sorry if this sends the thread to another forum, but I can't help myself, Jeff.

A Bobcat Legend: Ode to Caroline Mast

Been 30 years plus since she put on her show
A four-year team player seen at the Convo
Since she was here a long time has passed
Now we’re raising the jersey of Caroline Mast!

Twenty-four hundred points* – that’s cutting the cords
Now add to that over twelve hundred boards
No MAC player comes close, her stats unsurpassed
We’re raising the jersey of Caroline Mast!

If you’re the MAC player for an entire decade,
And twice All American- feats that won’t fade
With records galore! Now ain’t that a blast?
We’re raising the jersey of Caroline Mast!

Her number, four zero - it needs dusting off -
Will soon soar on high in the Convo aloft
Let’s all rejoice! The die is now cast
We’re raising the jersey of Caroline Mast!
