VolleyCARDS host DUKE -- FRIDAY CARDINAL COUPLE

FRIDAYS WITH DARYL

Cheers to Friday !  My house/plumbing issue is still not resolved.  Its a bigger issue than we can anticipate tackling before the wedding so it's causing some backup issues in the basement near our storage and its just exhausting being an adult!!!   But its also FUN because you can go check out the CHEERS bar in Boston on your Bach party after you watch the series!!! Which you L O V E 


Anyways,  cheers to another weekend closer to the new year.  Basketball is back in the Ville and I got to see my friends Paulie and Jared (and Coach Walz) in person again :D  We shared a nice meal together before CHEERING the Cards to victory with the home crowd.  



The Cats are 3-0 on the season, with substanial wins over USC Upstate,Wofford and Northern Kentucky..all in Lexington at the newly renovated Memorial Coliseum. They are in their first year with head coach Kenny Brooks, who is 520-204, wth previous stops at James Madison and Virginia Tech.
