We got the Wright Stuff

We had Red Hill legend Susan Wright share her stories of the emergence of girls sports at Red Hill and how her Saluki teammates changed the way we looked at basketball in Bridgeport. Title IX was taking full effect in the United States and the first great Saluki teams were ready for the challenge. From 4 Square Miles to a successful business in Nashville, TN this is Susan's story.

And of course we even manage to work in a discussion on the famous Terry McAdow beard.   Find out WHO WON the 75-76 episode!  Please enjoy this show as much as we did recording it.

1975-76 was a fascinating year at our alma mater.  From sports success to groundbreaking board meetings and of course plans for the bi-centennial celebration.  The guys weave in references, music and clips from our favorite movie DAZED AND CONFUSED which was set on May 28, 1976.  Take a trip back to the seventies with us and listen with a bud!

RHHS heads into the 80s and we take a look at the whole school year.  The “fastest backfield in the NEC,” a GREAT girls basketball season, a 12 year old Bryno drooling over high school cheerleaders, Stevenson’s sweet tea, Shanks state track meet heart breaker and we “Whistle a Happy Tune.”  Whew, lots of stuff to cover and of course many Darby Waggoner mentions.
