Boston College Eagles Quote of the Day:

[On coming out of retirement in the front office to play for the Las Vegas Aces]: “I got a call in I think it was early May, shortly after Ji-Su [Park] announced that she wasn’t going to be coming back, that meant that our roster was going to be short. So our general manager, Dan Padover, gave me a call. He had known that I had made this decision to retire, but he asked if I was interested in rejoining the team. I thought about it for a couple days, and it seemed like a really exciting opportunity to jump back into it.”Carolyn Swords
