I hope so. It's always a good day when the Bearcats lose.

First qtr running clock.

I hope Walton is competitive in the first half. And good news everyone, free video from Beechwood!

BW's broadcast team is terrific. "First class' just doesn't come close in describing their production.

I love listening to those guys!

Beechwood in a romp.

Tough matchup for Walton. Happy for the Bearcat program that things are looking up (as I expected when they hired Coach Pence), but this one likely goes sideways early.
