I posted something about Jordyn and felt guilty about not mentioning our other senior, Bella LaChance. Early on, Bella became one of my favorite players because of her unbridled enthusiasm and spirit whether she was on the court or on the bench. Bella played some good minutes early on and seemed to have a knack of turning the ball over the very first time she touched it, but after that, gave you some solid minutes. As the younger players developed, Bella's minutes decreased but her enthusiasm and spirit never did. Every team needs a player like Bella. Bella came in with a little over a minute to go and the crowd was yelling "get it to Bella". With about 30 to go, Vandy had a sideline out-of-bounds and you could see the other 4 players plotting how they were going to screen, etc. for Bella. Well, they did, and Bella drove to the goal. But Georgia was not going to let her score, so Bella ended up under the goal falling out of bounds, having no choice but to kind of throw up a "shot" as she was going down. Of course, it went in. The bench went crazy, the crowd went crazy, Bella ran down the floor going crazy. Just a touch of "Memorial Magic" for Bella on her Senior Day.
