Summer Radio

So Andrew and myself conducted a few interviews and sound checks today. We hope to narrow down the applicants by the weekend as we still have one or two more interviews tomorrow. So far we have a lot of talent and we hope to expand on that this summer. The goal is to continue growing and developing our broadcasting skills. We also hope to broadcast football games in the upcoming fall which is really exciting for us seeing that our station (U92, 91.7FM) has never done football before. Basketball season ended in an exciting way as Andrew, Chao, and I got to broadcast the C-USA conference championship. Not only did the Memphis Tigers win but we also got to witness history!!!!! The three of us were on hand for the raising of the banner which held the names and numbers of the three most winningest players in NCAA basketball history. Antonio Anderson 5; Robert Dozier 2; Chance McGrady 10. I must admit this may have been the most exciting semester of my college career. On another note three players from our university's club rugby team (flanker) were invited to play in the division two mid south all star game. As a part of the west side all stars our players Josh Gardner (flanker, 6), Bruce Eddy (2nd row, 4), and Lawrence "L.D." Davis (fullback, 15) all earned starting positions. The west side went on to win the game, I forget the final score. Anyway I am looking forward to the summer and playing rugby 7's with some of the guys, also I hope to find a place to live near the university as I no longer wish to live in the dorms...
