Struggle

Five leaves remain on the maple tree, struggling to hang on.
Five games remain for UK struggling to make it to 2000.

The following quote heard at a CME this morning:

"The most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well."

-- Pierre De Coubertin, French historian and pedagogue, founder of the International Olympic Committee, and considered father of the modern Olympic Games.


Regardless of the outcome of the UK vs. UNC game now going on, UK will hopefully "fight well."

As it turned out, UK squeaked by 68-66 but it was a game of two halves with UNC showing the grit in the second and UK showing the brilliance in the first.
