“Definitely made me feel old. I was looking at all the underclassmen and my other classmates and I was like, I’m really going to be in the real world now,” said Wayshaun Hicks. “I felt the back pain coming in as soon as I signed that paper, honestly. So it definitely made me feel old.”

“It meant a lot to me because I didn’t expect it like that,” said Simone Hamlar. “Many people show up and when I just saw, like all my old teammates, like people that have graduated, came back and it just made me so happy to see that everybody was supporting me.”
