  1. For me it began and ended with the late Tom Hamrick at Blankenship Field. He's the gold standard to me, having grown up listening to him announce ORHS games. When I began to do PA work myself, my style emulated from Tom and the late Marshall Mann, who was the PA announcer for Braves games at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium.

     

    Guy also does an outstanding job and I also enjoy the work of Greg Judkins over at "Merryville".

  2. Congratulations to Coach Blade and his staff and the players for their semifinal appearance this year. This program has been through much adversity in the last few years so it's gratifying to see the kids see it through and work through the playoffs away from Blankenship. Also congratulations to Mike Mullins for his AD of the year award. This program has turned the corner and has a lot to build on thanks to the leadership on this team. Best wishes to Jose Valedon as he continues his football career at Vanderbilt.

  3. Hi everyone,

     

    On behalf of Jennifer Basler, Cooper (Shawn's now two-month old son) and the rest of the Basler family, we want to take the time to thank you for all of the best wishes, the calls and the visits while Shawn has been in the hospital. The outpouring of support and love from coaches, players and fans has been overwhelming. Shawn is improving slowly each day, however please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers while he is on the road to recovery.

     

    Thanks again and please keep the Baslers in your prayers.

     

    Greg Addington
