And now for “this is Patty G”
Birthdays for today: Austin Schomaker turns 17, John Nelson turns 15, and Jacob Mason turns 17.
And now for world news and Patty G with sports.
Three-peat complete! The boys soccer team has won back-to-back-to-back SWOC championships for the first time in team history after an 8-1 rout of Mt. Healthy on the road. Sam Robinson and Ethan Kent each had 2 goals in the game. Ben Marks allowed just 1 goal in net and had 2 saves. The Braves have allowed just 5 goals against in the past 4 games. So congratulations to the boys soccer team!
Also, congratulations to Austin Goerss for making it into a five-way playoff at sectionals, hoping to grab one of two remaining spots for the district tournament. Though he didn’t nail down a spot this year, there are high hopes for his chances next season! Here he is on the first playoff hole, with his teammates behind him all the way.
Home games for today: Boys JV and Varsity Soccer take on Edgewood. JV at 5 and Varsity at 7. Tonight is fan appreciation night at the field, and all students get in free with their student ID. The student’s section theme for tonight is a black out as well, so hope to see a big crowd there. The game will be live streamed as well starting at 7 on the Brave TV YouTube Channel.
And that’s our broadcast on this Thursday. I’m Patrick Geshan. Thank you so much for watching — and have a great day.
