Princeton grad does good

Major congrats to Kevin Donnelly (#4 in that picture there, the one who looks kinda special).  He's a PHS grad from the class of 2008 and a great guy.

He's also - as of Saturday evening - an NCAA champion as his Northern Kentucky University soccer team won the NCAA Div II championship in a driving snowstorm.

Donnelly's a junior at NKU who started 21 of the team's 25 games this year.  And I'm thinking a couple of you folks just might remember him.

Check out

• his roster page on NKU's website...
• NKU's story about the game...
• NKU's photo gallery...
• Cincinnati Enquirer's story about the game (from which the photos I'm using came)...

Interestingly, the game was in Louisville, hosted by Bellarmine University (employer or CoachSullivan) as part of the NCAA Div II Championships Festival.  The men's and women's soccer, women's volleyball, women's field hockey, & men's and women's cross country championships (and semifinals and even some quarterfinals) were all hosted by Bellarmine this past weekend.  Sounds like an awesome idea - bringing everybody together to have all the finals in one place as well as a coup and a pain in the backside for Bellarmine.
