Joy Boyenga was one of the best shooters during a historic run for the Dons in the mid-90s.
It was early October 2017 when Joy Boyenga-Woods got a call from the Merced High School athletics director.
Thirty years after she'd last played for the Bears, she had been voted in as part of their third Hall of Fame class. The next day, she visited her father, Jim, at his nursing home, a 10-minute drive from her house.
"Well," said Jim, smiling in his wheelchair. "It's about time."
A month after that call, he passed away from lung failure.
