A good teammate doesn’t just show up on game days. They show up when: - Practice gets tough. - Workouts feel endless. - You’re struggling with school, life, anything.

Very sad to hear Coach Palmer has passed. He will be missed by so many. Kind, giving and compassionate, Win was a true gentlemen. I will miss our many conversations re hoops, our families and life in general. Prayers for Matt, Tyler and the family. RIP my friend.
