THANK YOU.

Thank you Windsor for reading. There are so many former Duke players out there who deserve to have their stories told. We follow their every move so closely for four years and then so quickly it is easy for them to drift out of our awareness. I feel like I have learned a lot trying to follow them for other fans to read about.
