Live Coverage (George Vosburgh Announcing)
We are up and live this morning. We have completely distracted the announcer by telling George we are up and running live as he tries to get this up on his phone. The service is hosted by Ustream, which may or may not work on George’s phone. Here is the live coverage again, either way. [...]

Regionals have arrived
