Fred Persinger marked an incredible milestone this year. It was the 50th Bball Tournament he called. His talent & work ethic could’ve taken him to a big network job but he chose to highlight the achievements of HS athletes. It’s an honor & a privilege to work with one of the best
It's a shame Mon County students, particularly student-athletes, will pay the price of choices made by WVU students. While those students will face little consequence for those same decisions.
Just to be clear, schools could be closed and HS athletics cancelled in Mon County because it is in the orange or red on the WVDE Map... but WVU will have intramural sports. Yep.. makes sense to me.
Ready to play some Intramural Sports this year? Gather your team, get registered, mark your calendars and get ready to play. Registration is already open! Visit for the full schedule of sports offered for all sessions.
BREAKING: Charges have been filed in the death of a WVU student killed in a auto/ped accident. Michelle Gelada, 20, of New York has been charged with negligent homicide. She surrendered this morning and is pending arraignment.

Picked up some hardware at the
#WVBA22
banquet Saturday night. It’s extremely humbling to continue the legacy Kay Murray and Jim Stallings started on
#TalkoftheTown
and to be recognized with the
@MetroNewsPrep
crew, who are undoubtedly the best in the business.
In case you're wondering, the remaining QBs on the
@HerdFB
roster: Luke Zban (R-SO), Cam Fancher, Seth Smith, Ty Tarpley & Cade Cunningham (all frosh). Recruits Chase Cunningham, Peter Zamora & Cole Pennington will be true freshmen.
Good morning from College Park.
@HerdMBB
going through shoot around for tonight's tilt with the Terps. I'm filling in for

on
@HerdSportsIMG
. Coverage starts at 5:30.
Yesterday, Mon County was told it would allowed to play even if it turned red today. Then the rules get changed at the last minute. Feel terrible for
@MohiganAthletic
@U_Athletics
& Clay-Battelle. You did everything that was asked of you.
This makes much more sense than coming to Huntington with a potentially undefeated
@HerdFB
team, as we honor the 50th anniversary of the 1970 team. Yeah, let's promote golf.
According to
@TheHerdAD
the season opener for
@HerdFB
at East Carolina is still on. Boise State is still coming to The Joan. Scheduled game with Pitt is still an unknown.

One of the coolest places to call a high school game from - Pony Lewis Field.

takes on Hedgesville tonight. We’re on the air at 7:06 at and in town on 104.5 FM & AM1440.

Do I really need to say it again? Ok... I will.
@U_Athletics
and
@MohiganHoops
are the best two teams in the state and the PI continues to back me up.

New guidance released on the WVDE website. Teams in 'orange' on COVID state protcols map can only do conditioning drills, sport-specific drills are now prohibited. Previously, all teams in orange could practice fully.

FINAL: Morgantown rolls Musselman 99-51. Brooks Gage set a new school record with 9 3-pointers in the game. He led all scorers with 31 points. Mohigans start the year with an impressive 3-0.
Another half marathon in the books. Jenna finished the Greenbrier Half Marathon in 2 hours flat. I finished two cups of coffee and a chocolate croissant. I think we were both winners.

Had a great time at
@NSMASportsMedia
Awards Weekend. We got to meet & hang out with some of the best in the business. It was humbling to so many talented people.
Congrats to all the winners. Hope to be back again.
Sorry to hear about the passing of
@MohiganAthletic
HoFer & longtime PA Announcer Jack Johns. Always looked forward to visiting with him in the pressbox on Friday nights. He was the Voice of the Mohigans.
A little bit of good news in Mon County where COVID-19 cases jumped this month. Active cases are down to start the day and Harvard Global Health Institute puts the county's risk level back to orange. It had been in the red for some time.

Active

cases in Mon County have decreased by nearly 120 cases since Monday. Active cases have been declining for about a week. 7-day rolling average of new cases per 100k people is down to 19. All positive indicators.
Couple of notes from WK 2 of

... The last time
@MohiganFootball
beat Bridgeport was 1983, under HC Vic Bonfili. Of course, those teams didn't play from 1985-2018. The win also marks the Mohigans' first 2-0 start since 2016.
@MetroNewsPrep
I still don’t understand how Ohio State benefits by not qualifying for the Big 10 championship game while USC is eliminated from the
#CFBPlayoff
because it played an extra game against one of the best teams in the Pac 12.
