@NBCOlympics
There are a little less than 2,700 people in Seward, AK. To see that crowd watching Jacoby shows the beauty of the sport and the Olympics.
@NBCOlympics
The GCL never ceases to amaze me! This time, the Moeller Crusaders reverse sweep the Olentangy Liberty Patriots (19-25, 16-25, 25-23, 25-23, 15-13) and make history as the first Division 1 team to pull a three-peat!
Here’s my clip of match point

Onward and upward from here!
Got the chance to see
@Cronkite_ASU
for the first time today. Looking forward to the next four years!
Special thanks to

My preview for
@STXBBALL
vs.
@FFIndiansMBB
tomorrow Dec. 21 at 7:30 (not 7) at Fairfield High School, as the reigning co-GCL champ faces off against the reigning GMC champ. If you can’t make it, I’ll have the call on

There are a lot of passionate people in this world, but it’s hard to find someone as passionate as Nicholas Hoddell.
After 8 years, College Basketball Bonanza has drawn to a close. Here’s the final send off from Hoddell.
Thanks for all that you do. Good luck in Brenham, man!
Breaking News: Phoenix has acquired 3 snowbirds: Sheila, Alok, and Rithik Sinhasan from Cincinnati.
The Sinhasans credit family member and current
@Cronkite_ASU
sophomore Mihir Sinhasan as a key asset in their recruitment to the Valley.
Bomber Nation,
Tough way for
@StxVolleyball
to end their season. Thank you everyone who tuned into
@ESPX_
for every bump, set, spike, and “Hello Tooman!“ this season. It was an honor to be the voice of this team. See you next year.
From,
Mihir Sinhasan
Started today’s Buckeye Sports Breakdown episode expressing my condolences to
@ChadBrendel
and his family. Chad’s wife, Kelly, passed away earlier this week 🙏
The links for Kelly’s GoFundMe page and the episode are below.
What a week!
5 broadcasts in 6 days covering playoff LAX and VB! Valuable experience for me before I head to
@Cronkite_ASU
next year.
Oh yeah! And I graduated from
@stxinfo
! Once again, thanks to Ryan King ‘22 and
@jordancornette
for some great speeches.
@ESPX_
@espmediasn
Thank you to the loud and energetic
@StXavierSoccer
supporters at Lakota East tonight. Thank you also to everyone who tuned in to the broadcast on
@ESPX
which got more than 850 live views, whether at home or at Phonathon! All hands on deck Saturday as we face Centerville!
What. A. Day. Freshman win 68-61 after Fairfield scored on a buzzer beater. JV wins 54-51 after Fairfield misses a buzzer beater. And Varsity comes from behind to win 64-61 on a Jonny Vanover buzzer beater. You didn’t have to go to 34th St. to witness this miracle!
Senior Jonny Vanover caps off a career night (28pts) with a GAME-WINNING pull up three as the buzzer sounded to finish the Bomber comeback!

Super excited to announce that I will be a sideline reporter for Blaze Radio this year, covering select ASU sporting events! I will be remotely calling 2 Sun Devil Football games for the network as well!
Special thanks to
@_sykoraryan
and
@cavanmalayter
for these opportunities!
Great win for the Bombers. For the guy to lead the “We Ready” chant at the pep rally to have the game-winning pick six shows that sports is the best form of poetry. Have a night Bombers!
Final meal in Cincinnati before I move to Phoenix had to be a cheese coneys from
@Skyline_Chili
, right!?
Thanks for a great 16 years Cincinnati! I’ll see you when I return on break!
@stxsports
Fun Fact: Today’s game is not the first time St. X Basketball has faced an opponent from outside the U.S. In the 1999-00 season, they hosted a team from Sydney, Australia. The Bombers won that game.
Today, I turn 20. To be honest, it doesn’t feel like I have turned 20 because I feel like I’ve been this age for a while now. Probably from doing what I do with the people around me
My preview for
@StXavierSoccer
vs. Turpin in the Second Round of the OHSAA Soccer Playoffs.
@KopfGus
and I have the call on
@ESPX_
with coverage starting around 6:45 and the game at 7.
@stxsports
So on Boxcast, the streaming service for
@ESPX_
broadcasts, I can see how many viewers were watching at any given moment.
At kickoff: 39 live viewers.
At the start of OT: 106 live viewers
The moment the Bombers won the shootout: 242 live viewers
Let’s go viewers!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Not a bad game and result for my first lacrosse broadcast! The boys looked energetic and created and took advantage of clear cut chances to pick up the convincing win. I would love to call another game for this team later this season!
Bombers WIN over Mason! Luke Vrsansky and Khalif Hocker both have hat tricks, and 7 different Bombers scored!
Lleyton Kidd with 9 saves!

Great win for the Bombers as they get their 2nd consecutive sectional title.
GCL > ECC. St. X beat Wayne by 3 earlier this year. Can they be better than the GWOC powerhouse?
@ESPX_
@STXBBALL
Today, I went to Silver Spring House for the first time. Great atmosphere for a Wednesday night. Highly recommend the Spring House Chicken.
Thanks to

for recommending it. Looking forward to trying some more restaurants in Cincinnati!
I have a big announcement.
My family is joining me in Phoenix! With that, my time in Cincinnati will come to an end in a few days.

PxP- 8
Writing- 5
Camera- 2
Sideline Reporting- 1
Creative Content- 1

Okay…Twitter’s back
Either way, I just wrapped up a 12-hour work day inside an NBA arena. Coolest experience of my young sports journalism career.
That was my day. How was yours?
Welcome to the GCL, and in the words of Coach Specht, it’s where everybody knows your name and your game! Hope to see you guys at Nippert. If not,
@rengers_zach
and Gannon McMahon have the call on
@ESPX_

After calling a game and writing two articles inside Footprint Center yesterday, I am off to Toronto to spend time with family
Thank you
@Blaze_Sports
and
@InfernoIntel
for making this my best semester at Cronkite! I’ll be back in a couple weeks to kick off 2024
Today, I said so long to the Archives Room
@stxinfo
. I’ve had a great time interning here the past two summers, compiling
@stxsports
records and interviewing alumni for a project.
Highly recommend stopping by and learning about St. X’s 190+ year history!
