Re: Bill Lechner Final Season

A friend played baseball at St Thomas when Lechner was there. He said Bill played shortstop and my friend didn't think he made an error in his college career.

No relation.
Thank you. I am a Jaguar fan so I am biased but Mike is still the best HS player I have ever seen.

Re: Tonka Moorhead

Dumb penalty early by Moorhead giving Tonka powerplay results in goal. Goals two and three for Tonka on Moorhead goalie. As good as Tonka is defensively, this one’s over early. This comment sure didn’t age well As I acknowledged. "It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future&quo...

One area to watch: they will be without the services of sophomore goaltender Drew Sherman (1) in the quarterfinal, Interesting. I had a laugh but can see how not everyone would. Too bad. He played great when I announced their Rogers tie. Can you share why he will miss the just the first game?
