Hometown Huddle

We recap the super bowl and talk about our sports bucket lists. We talk about Hall of Fame nominations and ramble about the olympics.

Tonight we had the opportunity to interview the Wardenaar family. Farrah Wardenaar is our girl's basketball head coach. She was joined by her son Grant, a sophomore leading the boy's basketball team into the district tournament, as well as Lauren and Wade, who are both in the middle of intense middle school and AAU basketball seasons. Join us as we talk about everything that comes with being a basketball family in a small town!

In this episode, we interview Madi and Hali Christensen who are two of our girls wrestlers at Royal High School. We talk to them a little about their experience as small town athletes and how their wrestling season is going.

We preview district basketball for the boys and girls high school teams. We also talk about our favorite and least favorite places to play.

A short solo episode today where I talk about my thoughts on the College Football Playoff and reveal the Hometown Huddle All-State All-Classification teams for WA high school football!

We're just yapping at this point!

This week we talk about Royal's run to the 2024 State Championship. It's their fifth consecutive title (state record) and 13th title overall (also a state record). We talk about the big time players and the differences between this team and past championship teams. We look forward to the future and discuss what Royal needs to do to keep their run going.

In episode 3, we bring in a new co-host: our little sister, Chloe! She tells us about her experience being the only girl in a family of football boys. She also tells us about her seasons in volleyball and golf as well as what she has learned from her brothers' football exploits. 

In this episode we talk about why football and athletics in general are so important to small towns. We talk about some of the funny stories and interactions we have had with people in our town over the years. We break down some of our biggest rivals over the years, and we end the discussion talking about our favorite places to stop and eat after a game. 

In our inaugural episode, we talk a little bit about how to create the foundations of a winning team. We discuss how to overcome setbacks, and we wrap up by talking about some of our pre-game rituals.
