Wednesday Hoops - Tribute To Chris Ogryski

Thumb Tailgater Sports has it's third straight night of basketball, live on the internet with a audio webcast of the much anticipated showdown in the Boys Greater Thumb East League. The undefeated Harbor Beach Pirates at the Ubly Bearcats! Both teams are undefeated in the GTE at 4-0. Will Harbor Beach invade another ship and put it up for a bounty? Or will the Bearcats rip a hole open and sink the pirate ship? Find out tonight! Coverage starts at 7pm.
Tonight will also be a Original Thumb Tailgaters tribute to my friend, Editor of Huron County Press, Chris Ogryski. As you know by reading the blog over the past week, Chris passed away on Thursday night. He was an Original Thumb Tailgater as is his best friend Paul Adams - Sport Reporter of the Huron Daily Tribune. Paul & I will share our feelings and some memories of Chris Ogryski.

**UPDATE: What a wacky and wild night of Greater Thumb Conference Boys Basketball! There was a feeling that due to Cass City playing so well in the last couple of weeks that they were going to eventually pull off an upset and turn some heads with double takes in the Greater Thumb "Wild" West!! The Redhawks did it by hammering the USA Patriots! In the Thumb Tailgater Sports game of the night Harbor Beach came from behind by 20 points in the game with the comeback win over Ubly. Then the Bay City All Saint Cougars stomps on the sputtering Reese Rockets. The Lakers continue to flood their opponents - the latest drowning was the rusting of the Bad Axe Hatchets. The Marlette Red Raiders invaded the Thumb Dome with an overtime victory over the Sandusky Redskins. And the Brown City Greendevils continue to possess souls in the GTE.
