Somethings just seem a little crass.

Should they have ended their season?

This is the kind of decision that it is impossible to make the right one. People would complain if they ended the season, and people would complain if they didn't.

I agree. Continuing their season is hardly business as usual.

But, maybe, for the players involved, finishing the season would be the best decision in terms of honoring their slain fellow player and friend, and getting some closure; not to mention getting out there, and just for a bit, focussing on something other than this. It could be really helpful not just to the players, but to her family as well.

The decision will be up to them, and I'm sure there will be much prayerful soul searching about it.

This whole thing just makes me sick. I cannot imagine the grief. :(

No, and I doubt they seriously considered it either. I find it crass when a big sports program acts like they continue on BECAUSE they are honoring a deceased member. The seasons always continue. Find another way of honoring the member. Dedicate the season to her, but don't pretend like you were going to cancel the rest of the season. Maybe I'm just jaded, but it comes across as too self-serving to me.

Maybe retire her number or have a scholarship in her name. That would be longer lasting and quite meaningful.
