This is truly a heartbreaking story, I've been reading about it over at Rebkell's today whenever I've had the chance.

So sad and so sudden. Especially when I came across the video of the big celebration after her team won the Patriot league title, just a month ago. It looked like an incredible moment to be a part of.

Ditto what MamaB said...the celebration after they won the game that clinched the first ever tourney bid for the academy was one I remember rewinding and watching a few times on my TiVo. And watching the women's selection show later and seeing her with her kids and ESPN hooking up her brother.

I clicked the TV on this morning as I was getting ready for work and read the little breaking news box on ESPN News and stopped in my tracks. Very sad news - and it just feels even sadder because television gave me more of a personal connection to her than just a scrolling crawl or a blurb in the paper.
