Nice info. Seems like it is a little late to start. I figured it would be like Mid-June. Ohh well, good luck to all area players.

Good job Cory G from Sp. Looks like you will be teaming up with an old team mate from youth days. Beau Daily will be there. Beau Weed was going to be there but signed with West Virginia Wesleyan. I also heard they were looking at Tyler Smith. Should be a good team

In particular, I am excited about WGOH-AM serving as the flagship home of KCU Football. Every Saturday afternoon in the fall, fans will know that they can tune in to WGOH and catch all the exciting action of KCU football.

Partnering with WGOH/WUGO gives us a great presence in our area and beyond with their internet capabilities. Go Radio’s commitment to sports is unparalleled, and this gives us visibility. Nobody does sports like WGOH/WUGO.”
