Thursday morning today, Thumb Tailgater Sports was invited to cover two big signings at Croswell-Lexington high school. Cros-Lex senior Leah O'Connor signed a letter of intent with Michigan State University. O'Connor is a well known Blue Water Thumb area track star. She is a two-time State Champion for the Pioneers in track & field and All State cross country. Leah led her cross country team to three BWAC titles in 2007, 2008 & 2009. Also Cros-Lex senior Alexander West, an offensive lineman with the Pioneer football team signed with Northwood University. Thumb Tailgater Sports tried a live video event and scored some interviews. It was only second time we tried video, so it was out of focus, but this was a learning experience for TTS. We will be getting better webcams.

Port Hope ( 15-1 ) at Kingston ( 12-4 ) next Thursday night.
We got to see the Blue Stars in action early this week Coach - your girls will have to have their A game going. But we did see that Port Hope does have a few cracks in the armor. Should be a great game!
We are very excited about the opportunity to play Port Hope again. The house will be rockin Thursday night ! Should be a great atmosphere !
