Our family has found itself happily caught up in yesterday's thrilling upsets. It's been one BIG party in San Diego!! Cinderella University of San Diego (USD) beating UCONN ignited quite a celebration! My daughter is an alumnus of USD, class of 2001. She was attending a class at USC's (yes, U S "C") graduate school during the game yesterday when her cell phone started going crazy with text messages galore! The word got out in class & even the USC students with her started cheering for USD.! Everyone stopped & started checking the game via their cell phones. She said it was an incredible feeling having the USC students cheering for her team!! (It is like Anne said where other schools' fans start joining in with your celebration.) The rest of the family was going nuts watching the game.. editing to add: and praying for the USD players to just SURVIVE the size differential!!

We have now been bitten by the "madness" and are all together with family & friends enjoying a great holiday weekend. It's amazing that BOTH USD's men's and women's teams won their conferences, automatically making it to the big dance. I sure can appreciate Oz & Luke's thrilling experience together at the games in D.C. Though we aren't in Tampa, here in San Diego Kipley & I are having a fantastic experience! Our little team has already surpassed everyone's expectations....the rest is icing on the cake after yesterday!! Thanks for listening to another proud parent :)
