Good morning, Talawanda! Today is Wednesday October 3rd, 2018
Yesterday, the Talawanda FFA Chapter competed in their first competitions of the year, and were very successful. The Urban Land evaluation team finished 3rd in the contest of 13 teams. Joseph Copeland finished in 3rd, Matthew Butterfield 8th, Dakota Kiefer 10th, and Austin Lake in 11th out of 67 individuals, and will be our State Judgers. Other judgers were Olivia Zaenkert in 19th, and Morgan Gillespie in 49th. This will be the 9th year in a row that we qualified for State in Urban judging. The Rural Land evaluation team finished in 4th place of 22 teams, with Dalton Schlichter 8th high individual, Austin Weekley 13th, Spencer Crauder 22nd, Kasey Condo 26th, Peyton Weekley 29th, and Hunter Brewer 39th. All braves finished in the top 36% of the contest. Good luck to these teams as they have now qualified for the state finals held next Saturday in Eastern Ohio. Go aggies!
Reminder that there will be Braves for the Cure shirts for $12, and bracelets for $1. They will be for sale during lunches and in Mrs. Gregory’s room all week. The pink out football game is on October 12th, so make sure to purchase your shirt to support the braves, and help raise money for the side out foundation, and Luna cares.

And now for world news and another fake Patty G with sports.
The volleyball team gathered their first home conference win of the year last night with a straight set victory over Mt. Healthy. Their overall record is now 5-12, and the Braves improve to 3-6 in the SWOC. Next up, they travel to Edgewood for a road match on Thursday.
The girls soccer team beat Mt. Healthy last night by a score of 9-0 last night at the field in a big win — they are 9-3-1 overall and 6-3-0 in the SWOC.
The boys soccer team ’s game at Mt. Healthy was postponed until today, so they will take on the Owl’s on the road with the varsity kick at 7:30 tonight.
There are no home games for today, good luck to the boys golf team who plays in sectionals today at Miami Whitewater. That’s where I’m going now.
And that’s our broadcast on this Wednesday. I wish I was Patrick Geshan, but unfortunately I’m not. Thank you so much for watching — and have a great day.
