Wounds that fail to heal are a hidden epidemic as our population ages and people become vulnerable to diabetes, vascular disease and many of the other conditions that lead to chronic wounds.

When I analyze it, I never would've dreamed of playing as long as I have and I'm excited about taking this next step.

Our team is a blend of skilled underclassmen and seasoned veterans. We need to continue to improve and grow as a team to reach our goals for the 2006 season.

It wasn't the cleanest game on our part. I'm proud of us for hanging in there. Buchanan was this close to slamming the door on us.

That's probably going to be weird and something that you'll have to go through and get over with. But since we came closer to moving in this direction, my mind has just been thinking about the young defensemen on the team, how they play and how I can possibly help them. So that, I think, has made the emotional part easier.

I'm just excited to look back at some of my experiences and lend them to the younger players. I'm excited and I really believe I can help in those areas.

I guess it was a coming out day for him.

This is a huge win. Buchanan is loaded with seniors who are veterans and Valley champions.
