Steph Won

Over the weekend, the Lady Chiefs won 3rd place in Class 5 Missouri State Basketball. It was their coach, Steph, who led them there.

Steph is fighting 4 colon cancer and she's determined to beat it.

I used to play basketball against Steph in high school. Our team hated playing her team because they always kicked our butts. Always. She has always been a winner. I followed her when she played college ball. I followed her as she began coaching. I think she is an awesome role model for those girls that she coaches and everyone for that matter. Not because of what she's accomplished with basketball, but her attitude toward life and toward cancer.

After the game, Steph said about her cancer, "I'm determined to win at that too. So you guys just hide and watch."

My prayers go out to her and her family and I will be just one more watching as she wins again.
