01-25-10 Basketball Season

Basketball season is more than half over. We now know who the weak teams are and who the strong teams are. The stronger teams seem to get a lot of support but the weak teams have trouble getting fans. Your right, its a little boring sometimes to see a team getting beat by a large margin. The weaker team is out there trying their best and they deserve some support. Please support all your local teams.

12-31-09 Happy New Year

We wish you all a Happy New Year. We are looking forward to a 10 more weeks of good high school basketball. Hope to see all local teams at least twice and maybe more. It's our hope that many central Vermont teams make it to the Aud.

12-17-09 Wished I Had More Time.

Would like to write here more often but can't find the time. Basketball, wrestling, gymnastics and Christmas has kept me pretty busy. I hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. Just a few more games till the Christmas holidays and then back into high school winter sports action. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

11-22-09 Basketball Begins

Wednesday night the 18th I went up to see the VTC Women's basketball team play Hesser. This was my first game of my favorite sports season. The Lady Knights had a difficult night losing to Hesser by a wide margin. It's hard to judge based on one game but I would say the VTC women may have a difficult season ahead of them.

Saturday the 21st I went down to the Randolph gym and watched some high school girl scrimmages. The Randolph, Thetford, and Williamstown girls had a series of 20 minute scrimmages. The high school season starts Dec 2nd and many high school teams in the area are having scrimmage games to prepare for the new season.

I hope to see many games this season. From opening day to the finals at the Aud, it should be a exciting year.

11-07-09 Div 4 Soccer Championships

11-07-09 Division IV Vermont State Soccer Championships were held at College of St. Joseph in Rutland. In the first game Sharon Boys played against Black River for the Division IV crown. A very well played game went into two overtimes then a shootout in which Black River came out on top.

The second game featured the South Royalton Lady Royals against Arlington. Another well played game that went into overtime. Arlington scored the sudden death goal to win the Girls Div IV championship.

All teams played exceptionally well and deserve credit for a great season. Thanks for a great season.

10-01-09 Soccer Season

10-01-09 The 2009 Soccer season is about 1/2 over. If you have not seen any games yet there is still time left. Today the Randolph Gal Ghosts host Oxbow at 4 PM. The gal and guy Royals of South Royalton will host Rivendell and the Whitcomb boys will host Twinfield.
As in any year there are strong teams and weak teams but all the kids do their best and should be supported by their communities.
The leaves are turning color and I hope to get some good photos this weekend to share with you.
Saturday is a big day in cross country with one of the biggest meets of the season at the Thetford woods run. This is a good chance to support the kids and enjoy the foliage at the same time.
See you at the game.

09-23-09 The Randolph Galloping Gal Ghosts pulled out a double overtime win over Stowe. The Ghosts had the game well in hand with a 1-0 lead but with 53 seconds left in regular play Stowe was able to score and send the game into sudden death overtime. Neither team was able to score in the first overtime but the Gal Ghosts scored in the second overtime for the win. The Gal Ghosts next game will be in Northfield this Friday 09-25-09.
