Happy Wednesday, everyone – the weekend is almost here, so stay focused!

From looking outside our window this morning, it looks like a sloppy and slushy mess of snow, rain, and puddles – yuck!

Anywho, let’s make today a great day by producing an awesome (and amazing) Daily Noontime!

In The News:

Melinda Ogden netted a team-high 16 points, while Lauren Plissey added a double-double of 13 rebounds and 11 points as Maine Maritime defeated Husson, 58-48, to cap its regular-season with some momentum heading into their conference tournament. With the win, the Mariners have now won six games, dating back to a 65-43 win over Northern Vermont-Lyndon earlier this month.
