I just sat down with sports editor Joe Lombardi, fan of the very Dayton Flyers, top 25-ranked, who were slayed last night by Mount Vernon’s own Chris Lowe. We taped another podcast, in which you can listen to us discuss the following:
— Mount Vernon-Ursuline
— Irvington-Pearl River
— The race between Albertus Magnus and Nanuet for the League III-C title
— A few bizarre items, like Angelei Aguirre scoring 33 of her team’s 34 points vs. Yorktown and Scarsdale’s futile but successful 30-22 win over Mamaroneck last week
— And my thoughts on why you can’t count out Scarsdale and/or Pelham in their games against Ursuline (next Tuesday) and Woodlands (next Friday), respectively.
— Joe and I also make our pitch as to why you should listen (and call in) to tonight’s Varsity Central Extra.
Stop it, you all know you love my self-promotion…

Josh,
I listened to your Podcast earlier today. Fun to listen to and watch you guys on TV. Anyway, you talked about the games for next week – Pelham vs. Woodlands being an interesting one. What about Rye vs. Woodlands tomorrow night? Rye just came off a big win over Pelham last night and should give Woodlands a run for their money (I hope so anyway as I am from Rye). Rye's freshman are developing quickly and Rye looks to be a really exciting team soon.
