Dear colleagues,
I hope that you had an enjoyable and restorative spring break.
What an incredible season for W&M basketball! Our women’s team made history this weekend, becoming the first in school history to win the CAA championship and earn a spot in the NCAA tournament! I’m thrilled to cheer them on as they take the court at the Big Dance on Thursday. Go Tribe!
Our men’s team also had a strong season this year, and their talent, dedication, and hard work will continue to push the program forward. Exciting times for Tribe basketball!
