Thank you, Illini Volleyball.
This was an incredible season to be a fan. From the Orange and Blue scrimmage through the Final Four match, I was lucky enough to be there and cheer on this team. This was a special group, and the best Illinois team I’ve been able to watch since I’ve been a student here.
A lot has already been said about Thursday’s match, and how it ended. It was not an ideal end to an incredible season, but only one out of the 330 teams gets to end in a truly ideal place.
