Birthday weekend present to myself … stepped away from the computer so no email or blog. As for THE announcement
Shoji tweeted it while in Europe to spend the holidays with his sons early Saturday morning Hawaii time (around 1:30 a.m.)
Dave Reardon also had a column in Sunday's paper about it.
Scott Robbs this morning discussed naming the SSC court for Shoji the opening match of the season. Like the idea.
I also hope that when Shoji does retire that he'll do it as Al Scates did with enough notice in order to do a farewell tour around the league and be appreciated. I know there are several non-conference coaches who said they would come out to play as part of his final season.
