    For the 19th year in a row, the University of Florida Softball Team went to Trinity United Methodist Church in northwest Gainesville to help organize food for the 1100+ Thanksgiving baskets donated by the church to needy families.

    I was proud of myself. When they walked in, I identified them all except Brooke Barnard, who I thought was Wooten. It turns out Wooten was not there.

    All four coaches and Brittany Souilliard, Director of Softball Operations, were there along with Herb Brooks.
    Pierre Banks, Assistant Director of Community Development, and Destiny Lumpkin, Assistant Coordinator of the Gator Experience, arranged the visit.

    The Gator Experience is located in the Otis Hawkins Center in Farrior Hall.

    Something to be very proud about. Thanks to Coach Walton and the Lady Gators for representing the Nation in such an honorable fashion.
