We're just under a week past the end of the 2009-2010 prep sports season and Burney is going through some serious withdrawl. Burney without prep sports to cover is like Homer Simpson not being able to drink beer and eat donuts! Anyway, in trying to cope with my beloved beat being taken away from me for the next two months, I was thinking back on the last year and it dawned on me how much I'm going to miss some of the outstanding prepsters who recently graduated. These guys and gals had MAD STYLE on the field of battle and Burney wants to give one final shout out to all of them.
