FINAL FOUR BOUND.....

The Auburn Men's Basketball Team is headed to the NCAA Final Four for the first time in their program history. WAR EAGLE!!!

Coach Bruce Pearl will be making

his first Final Four appearance too.

In getting to the Final Four the Auburn team won their games against New Mexico, Kansas, North Carolina and Kentucky. WOW!!!

One of our players was injured during the North Carolina game (Chuma Okeke...torn ACL). The team finished the game for Okeke, and he placed Auburn's name on the bracket for the Elite Eight.

In pain, Okeke was watching the Auburn/Kentucky game from his hotel room. As Auburn was struggling just a bit in the first half, Okeke decided he needed to be at the game. He arrived, Auburn played for a win and they won.

FINAL FOUR...here we come...WAR EAGLE!!!!!

...and Toomer's Corner was rolled.

He loves Auburn basketball and golf. For many years he & Tim Palmer have had season tickets to Auburn basketball. Years ago they were also attending the SEC Tournament.

FAST FORWARD...they still attend Auburn basketball games but for the past six or seven years, they have attended The Players Tournament rather than the SEC Tournament.

Tim's son will graduate this year from college.  He plays baseball, and his season games interfered with Tim's attending the golf tournament this year. Glenn invited BIL David to attend with him.

Maggie Hanna, Tim's daughter, is a golf lover too. As she was watching the tournament on tv, she thought she saw Glenn.....and she did. Quickly, she captured a picture. "Eagle Eye" Maggie Hanna...an Auburn student.
