Ending On A Positive Note
Senior day win puts Boilermakers on right track
Sharon Versyp proclaimed this
senior class "special" just as
much for what it accomplished
on the court as its academic and
community achievements.

Emotions always run high on senior day and that has been the case during both of Drey
Mingo's such appearances. Here, the sixth-year player consoles her mother, Jennifer, during
the postgame ceremony.
Arm-in-arm with grandmother
and adopted mother Dorothy
Dance, Chantel Poston waves
to the appreciative Mackey
Arena crowd as she is introduced during post-game
ceremonies. At that moment,
it mattered little that Poston
was unable to score in her
final home game.
Purdue desperately needed a
win over Illinois to stem the
tide of its the recent downturn. It was a mad scramble at
times, but it took a second half
rally to get the Boilermakers to
their sixth consecutive home
win over the Illini.
