Today is the day... Hall of Fame induction takes place tonight! Thank you to all of my teammates, friends, and family who was there all the way. Newark gave me some valuable lessons that made me the woman I am today. My international travels because of my talent watered the seed of greatness within me and God gave the increase.
I celebrate ME today! Keep fighting, keep pushing, keep growing into your Greatness Cookie. JIRO

Enjoy the journey...
So much has been happening since I first got the news, I had to take time to stop and embrace the honor. Next week I will be inducted into the Newark Athletic Hall of Fame for my accomplishments in basketball and track & field. I appreciate the vote of confidence and I am grateful for those who helped me along the way. Confidence, Character and Commitment paying off decades later. It's only the beginning. JIRO
