  I thought all games were at 730 for Friday night play off games? Is that 700pm start for sure BRF?
• riders1

  

  OHSAA has all Fri @ 7:30 and Sat @ 7:00 unless noted and it is not noted, so it should be 7:30

  I copied and pasted that from staff e-mail out of the AD's office. I was also surprised. I am going to guess that it is a mistake.

  Hmmmm...who will be right and who will have to make an e-mail correction? Ha ha! We all know the answer.
• RedRider1

  

  It's 7:30pm.
  
  I made this graphic last night...put Medina's field name in there just to have a placeholder....nice to not have to go back and correct it.

  Nice work RR1
• BRF

  

  And.............at 5:09 pm "in the afternoon"......this came through in the staff e-mail:
  
  "*The OHSAA has Friday start times at 7:30 p.m. not the 7:00 p.m. listed on the announcement.

  Best of luck Orville!
  
  A Genoa-Orville rematch in the region 14 finals would be pretty sweet, but first things first. I'm afraid Genoa's going to have their hands full with Clear Fork this week. Hopefully both our teams will make it to week 13.

• OQB

  

  Good old Kent....haha anyone else wish we had a real PA person with a personality?
• 5knots

  

  I vote for BRF!
• OQB

  

  5k...I was just thinking the same thing!! haha
  
  Wouldn't that be a treat for all in attendance!
• BRF

  

  Ya know what? I would put on a good show, fer sure!.........professional, but entertaining! ha ha ha!
• OQB

  

  I'm sure all former and current students would love it! haha I probably wouldn't even watch the game I would be so side-tracked
• riders1

  

  I don't think most people listen to the PA, until the 50/50 numbers are called out.
• BRF

  

  But you know it would never happen because you would need a crow bar or "jaws of life" to get the microphone out of that guy's hands!
  
  Anyhow....BRF will be doing his part through the week to help prepare our boys for this upcoming game.
  
  Go Riders!
• riders1

  

  Looks like we need to send OrrvilleQB to Lorain county to tell them about OC, so far all wayne county and the comet
• OQB

  

  Will you be my recruiting partner Riders1?
  
  Not many EC fans on the huddle either.
• riders1

  

  Maybe we should call WEOL 930 am and tell them to announce it By the way they will have this game on Friday night to hear a different set of announcers than the locals, it should come in real well in Medina and WQKT signal is sometimes hard to get.
• OQB

  

  Yeah WEOL did a very nice job in that game I listened to when EC played CCC.
  
  WIll Sky Fox actually be at this game? haha
• RedRider1

  

  Not saying anyone would or wouldnt be a good PA person...but Kent does fine. I dont need some over-the-top homer with a microphone. Kent gives the info and let's it lie with that.
  
  Just my two cents.
• 4QuarterPounders

  I think homers are irritating--Triway's is the worst. I think Kent is one of the best. He might be boring to some (I never thought of it that way), but it puts the focus where it ought to be. He won't embarrass us.
