We began the first hour catching up with Steve Carney as he is headed south for the week to drop a line or two along the Missouri River and we check in with him about the weather here in Minnesota as the winter roller coaster continues and water levels change. Then checked in with Jess Myers for The Rink Live as he previews Gophers-Penn State and breaks down some of the scenarios with the NCAA Regional Tournament teams. Also caught up with David La Vaque of the Star Tribune on his new release of 'Tourney Time' and recap of the Class A Championship, Lou Nanne and preview tonight's AA tournament!

David La Vaque covers high school sports, specifically with this annual classic in Minnesota for the Star Tribune. He previews Chanhassen and Edina tonight for the AA title and reflects on Lou Nanne's last call tonight! 

With the weather roller coaster we have been on, we checked in with the outdoors expert himself Steve Carney, he is en route to the Missouri River in the next day or so as he will be off fishing this week. 

We were able to yet again catch Jess Myers while at 'The Rink Live' who is at 3M Arena at Mariucci for the Gophers matchup with Penn State. Also, we cover some NCHC and CCHA scenarios with the tournament, who is in and who is on the cusp of being out. Will we see the Gophers at the Xcel Energy Center for the Frozen Four. 

Bailey Ober got the start against the Yankees today and got through a few innings and gave up a home run early along with three strikeouts but that did not stop the Twins from racking up some runs - they went on to win 10-7 in Ft. Myers. Byron Buxton had quite a day tallying up two triples, a home run and four RBI’s on the day. 

Another hour with Steve Thomson on a Saturday, talking with Andy Greder of the Pioneer Press about PJ Fleck getting bonuses and the Minnesota United’s home opener draw today. Then we chatted more about where the Gophers program is amid the PJ Fleck era. Also, Do Hyoung Park recaps the Twins loss to the Phillies amid Bailey Ober striking out seven and the progress of this team so far in Fort Myers. 

In his commute from Clearwater, we checked in with Do Hyoung Park, who covers the Minnesota Twins for MLB.com. He talked everything from Royce Lewis, to the Giolito-Joe Ryan matchup, to recapping today’s loss to the Phillies.

Had the chance to catch Andy Greder, writes for the Minnesota United FC and Golden Gophers football for the Pioneer Press. Not the opener the Loons were hoping for but it was an exciting finish despite a draw and also we ask Andy about the buzz around PJ Fleck getting a $700,000 boost as Gophers head coach. 

We began this hour outdoors as the weather warms up, Steve Carney gave us an update on how we can better prepare for spring and store our winter gear properly. Also we chatted with Jess Myers about college and state boys hockey tournament scores and preview the weeks ahead. Then talked to Kevin Lynch of Bally Sports North about high school hockey and recapped the Wolves loss to the Kings.
