A relaxing moment during a recent game. I was priveleged to do the play-by-play of the first game ever at the new St. Joe's Gymnasium in Natrona Heights, Pa. (12/16/08) The addition to this well-respected Catholic School is currently a work-in-progress and will greatly benefit its students in other sports as well as basketball. The construction of this $3.5 million facility was through public funding without cost to any taxpayer. Previously, St. Joe's had to rent a nearby facility for its indoor functions. With this new facility, "Nomads No More". (photo: Jason Heffran) |  |

Jeremy has worked behind the scenes in college radio & television, and was a natural for his assignment that evening.

Farrell aspires to get behind the mike some day to become a sports broadcaster. Nick is shown here at a recent Lady Spartans game at the St. Joe's gym, supplying the game's color commentary.
