Senior Celebration

[mu_hilltopper]

For those of you (*******) who left the BC after the game and didn't watch the senior night celebration..

It was great.  One of the most .. entertaining .. in a while.  Buzz was short and sweet, and did chat for a bit on how amazing 25-0 winning streak / back-to-back BE home undefeated is..

Trent Lockett lost his composure and was mobbed by the team for a while .. lots of tears there.

Junior's send off was emotional .. great  .. he's a ham.   Well done.

You have some video for us that left early...erh, I mean couldn't be in Milwaukee today?

What's the status of Lockett's mother. I recall reading she has made a medical recovery. Hopefully she was able to make today.

(I stopped taking senior night video a few years ago when MU started posting their video efforts.)

Yes, Trent's mom was there.

Good. I am glad. And I am glad she got to watch him contribute to his team in so many ways this season. We are better for his having become a Warrior. Thanks.

Why was Lockett's jersey a baby blue and Cadougan's a gold? Just the person preference of the player?

Here's a few pics..

Geez, they look good. Blend into the background perfectly.

Junior's Mom really dressed up.

I love the senior ceremony.  Thought the fan turnout (holdover?) was pretty good today as well.

It's pretty cool that this one season meant enough to Lockett to be that emotional. Seems as though the team/coaches bonded really well.

I bet the people that complain and moan about the students not showing up to the game, were the same punks who left early. Must be nice to have double standards.

I've been to a lot of Senior Days over the years (not today, unfortunately) and the postgame stuff is usually the best part !

I'll take that bet. 

Superfans .. like those who'd complain about students not showing .. are staying for the ceremony.

It wouldn't be Senior Day without people bitching on here about people who didn't stay.  Every year.

WE ARE MARQUETTE!!!!!!  Wish we have finish a little better. HATE ND

Junior's Mom did indeed dress up. I felt undressed for the day after seeing her outfit.

Since he graduated, did Lockett have a senior day at ASU? Glad he bonded with his MU team mates. This season at MU must have made a really positive impression for him; especially playing for a winning team.

I think he did. He had already decided to transfer at that point. He just did not know where he was going.

Who is the blond lady that Cadougan is kissing? I am assuming his mom is the lady with the roses all decked out.

His 'other Mom'--hugs and kisses her before every game.  Don't know anymore than that.

I love how Junior went to each person as he mentioned them, kissing all the females..

I lost it watching Trent.. glad to have him at MU this year!!

Junior doing the Rock's, "if ya smellllllll, what Marquette, is cookin!" was awesome.

[Lennys Tap]

Ceremony was short but very well done and moving. MU included the 4 senior managers and their families which was a nice touch. Lockett choking up and his teammates coming to his "rescue" was a clear indication of the team's togetherness. Trent said he's never had the tightness on a team he's played on that MU has. Junior was very comfortable with the mic, did a great job. Don't understand how anyone (short of an emergency) wouldn't stay for it.

Its his host "mom" that took him in when he came to the US to play basketball.
