At the beginning of the season, the Thunderbird Women's Basketball Team had high hopes and goals. One of them was accomplished as the Region XIII title went UTTC's way. After being a Region runner-up three times in years past, this one was looking just like those past contests. But a gutsy effort lead to an unbelievable comeback amongst an outstanding home court environment.
This game, was truly, one for the ages.
