bronc,
I made a tough decision this afternoon. Mrs. Hitchbones sister lives in Dublin and she wanted to see her 2 year old nephew who was in town from inronically Toledo. We made the pit stop. Needless to say, I got home after 5:00. Hopefully, that keeps me out of the doghouse.
My hope is we will put together one more community celebration in the next few days. Give the kids a chance to rest up and then practice on their speeches (lol).
I told many today that the kids not only won it for themselves, but for everyone in teh community and for all those teams back to the 30's that tried and did not succeed. I spoke with Chris Givens and told him, he was a part of this. He and everyone that graced the hardwoods at Chillicothe High and who supported the program over all these years. It is great to see the young kids and Seniors alike see History be made. I was reading the State Program and realized that next year, we will most likely be on the cover and each year it is published, everyone will see 2008 D2 State Champions Chillicothe High School, Chillicothe OH
GO CAVS!!! 2008 STATE CHAMPIONS!
