| TRACEY CARRINGTON 2014-15 SENIOR SEASON MORGAN STATE ATHLETICS |
At her funeral services Tuesday in Mondawmin, Carrington’s former teacher reminded the onetime Morgan State basketball star’s loved ones of that post.
“Baby girl, your brand is built,” Sidney Brooks said, gesturing to the hundreds of mourners in attendance.
Friends, family and mentors spilled into the aisles and out to the hall of the funeral home Tuesday, where they came to say a final goodbye to Carrington.
On Sept. 6, Carrington, of Dundalk, was gunned down by an unknown assailant while she was leaving a sports bar on Belair Road. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Some mourners came decked Tuesday in brightly colored shirts and jerseys featuring photos of the West Baltimore native or phrases such as “Fly high Tray” — referring to one of Carrington’s many nicknames.
While several speakers acknowledged anger over the circumstances surrounding the 25-year-old’s death, many made a point to say judgment was for God and that Tuesday would only be about love.
