A Banner Year…

With Forsyth falling short in the District Baseball Championship game the broadcast schedule for 2015-2016 has come to an end. Still some track going on and hopefully some medals to be won but as far as sports broadcasts the curtain has closed.
What a year it was. Reeds Spring continued their success on the football field. Again, winning ten games and advancing to the district championship game before falling to Aurora. An incredible group graduated last night and Coach Lance Gosch will have some holes to fill, but, no doubt the young Wolves are excited for a chance to show what they can do.

Rain…Rain…Rain

Rain and District baseball; It seems to be a mix that we get over and over. No doubt some years are worse than others. After a total washout, yesterday, we sit and wait on decisions on whether or not to play today.
Not much that can really be done. It is the time of year where rain is prevalent and a sport that cant be played with too much of the wet stuff. Continue reading “Rain…Rain…Rain”

Time to move on for a Special Wolf…

It should not come as a surprise that my first post on this new venture would have something to do with Reeds Spring Football. But, it is not the kind of post that many would expect.

I want to use this initial post to pay tribute to a very “special” Wolf. This is a guy that has left an impression on me, and the school, that will last for years to come. In talking with a Reeds Spring supporter, I made the comment that: “There has never been a player that played so little, that I will remember so much.” The pure excitement and joy that this guy shows is magnetic. He draws you to him. Continue reading “Time to move on for a Special Wolf…”
