I know this happened during the Women's tournament, but I didn't want it to get lost.

We sent 1 cheerleader to the tournament and the WSU cheer team invited her to join them. Now that's class.

Either you are classy or you are not--I have always thought that the Shockers had that extra something--over the years--that the Butlers for example , never had--And that is CLASS !! This cheerleader thing is further proof !! GO SHOCKS !!

A shocker fan posted this story a couple of days ago. Great display of class and sportsmanship!

I forwarded the Wichita Eagle story to as many national and local media outlets as possible. Sports Illustrated wrote about it on si.com and posted it on their facebook and Twitter pages. USA Today Sports ran it too and now, obviously, NBC 5 in Chicago is running it. It took all of 10 minutes to do. Given the fact that Loyola gets zero exposure locally, I hoped a story like this would give us a national mention. Maybe we all need to engage in a little guerrilla marketing to get some publicity. I know there's only going to be 4 sentences in the Tribune tomorrow morning about tonight's game - and that's if we are lucky. I also forwarded the Sister Jean story. What's s better story than a 95 year-old nun talking .rpi and strength of schedule. Anyway this is link to the SI story: http://www.si.com/college-basketball/20 ... eerleaders . The facebook story had over 2600 "likes" which I believe is a record for a Loyola Athletics related post on facebook. Here's to partying like it's 1985!

Good for BO !! Good for Sports Illustrated !! No Good for Chgo Media !! Actually it is pitiful !!

You know , this is what WSU and the Valley is all about ! Nothing but down to earth good will and sportsmanship. Good kids on both sides !
So many times we hear and read about the bad stuff from troubled kids. Here is a National organ ( S I ) printing a happy and MEANINGFUL story.
