Welcome back.. the 2007 season is almost ready to take off.. and so are we. We are well into the planning stages for another season of the FOX23 High School sports show, the original and only complete high school show in the Capital Region.
We'll be covering all the fall sports again this season with an emphasis on football and boys and girls soccer. But those aren't the only sports we cover. As you've seen in past years, we get to all the sports including field hockey, cross country, golf, tennis, swimming and volleyball.
As always, we're asking for your help. If you know of a story involving a Section II athlete, coach, official, fan, team.. well, Section II anything, we want to know. Please, post here at the forum or drop us an e-mail at sports@fox23news.com.
We'll also be adding a new wrinkle this year with our FOX BOX on-line poll question. We'll be asking you to pick our high school football "Game of the Week". Each week, we'll post a list of possibilities and ask you to vote for the one you think in the best matchup. Not only will we make that game the headliner, we will also post on our web site, soon after the game, all the footage we shot from that game, not just the highlights we showed during the show. Just a little added incentive for you to log on and make your schools game the headliner.
We'll also be continuing our "Team of the Week" feature as well as giving you medical advice from our trainer, Rick Knizek. ...and of course, we'll be bringing back the highly popular "Rockin' Rewind" plays of the week.
Bottom line, if you aren't watching, we don't have a show. So get involved! Let us know what you like and what you don't like. We'll make adjustments as we go.
To all coaches and athletes, best of luck for a great 2007. To all fans and viewers of the FOX23 High School Sports show, thanks for watching. Hope to see you at the games!!!
