Shorthorn Shots of the Week 2/14

This is going to be a combo post with selections from two weeks at The Shorthorn. It's been a busy two weeks between school, The Shorthorn, my first wedding (pictures to come soon) and working security at NBA All-Star events around DFW. We also had record breaking snowfall in the area, 12.5 inches, that contributed to the madness. KC Hall hosted a kickboxing class to promote activities at the MAC. As the men's and women's basketball seasons come closer to the Southland Conference Tournament, both teams are pushing for position in the standings. I'm a bit behind of updating the blog but hopefully I will have more time in the coming weeks. Enjoy.
