A UMBC legend from start to finish. See you in the Hall of Fame, Joe. 🙌
In 2015 I accepted my 1st and only D1 offer from a 4-26 team I’d never heard of. We won 7 games my first year. 2 years later we won a school record 25 and beat a 1-seed, and this year we made a 2nd straight championship game. My many thanks to @UMBC_MBB for 4 unforgettable years.
