    For Stone Belzo, football was truly everything. He had aspirations of playing for some very reputable universities and was well equipped (physically) to do so. But when issues in the classroom and injuries on the field took their toll, Stone found himself in a very difficult situation.

    Today he'll open up about the impact concussions had on him as a human being. The toll it took on his mental health and how he came out of it. He'll be providing his own suggestions on the matter as well, so please listen up!

  • Episode 197: McKay Anderson - State Champion Point Guard - Meridian High School

    We often hear, "Big time players, make big time plays, in big time moments." Today, we hear from one of those "Big Time Players"

    He's not particularly 'big' in stature. But he's a HUGE presence on the court. He's a walking '4-point play' and he's now, a State Champion.

    There's a reason they say "#30 will do you dirty" because McKay is one of those young men who will be a silent killer out there on the court.

    Today he's going to be sharing some of the secrets of his career, and the hard work he's put in. It's not an overnight success story. It's literally years and years of practice, ups and downs, failures, and sweat and tears that led McKay and the Meridian Warriors to their first State Championship since 1992.

    Tune in today and hear about McKay's career. And make sure, if you're listening to this on Apple Podcasts, leave a review letting us all know what you think of the show! The more reviews we get, the more exposure the guests will have as it will get in front of more people! SO LEAVE A REVIEW :)

  • Episode 196: DJ Green - McCall-Donnelly High School

    Despite falling short in the State Championship game this season, DJ Green was rewarded with the 3A State Tournament MVP Award as he absolutely dominated throughout the tourney. This was a season of ups and downs for the McCall-Donnelly basketball program, but Green led them to the State Tournament where they had a massive showout.

    Doing play-by-play broadcasting for the 3A Tournament on behalf of the NFHS Network this year, I caught the semi-final matchups and was able to call DJ's game. I was blown away at the athleticism and overall ability to play at such a high level! Then I watched him in the State Championship as they fell just short of the title!

    DJ will be chatting with us today about his upbringing, what it was like playing ball this year with all the restrictions due to the pandemic and we'll hear about his work ethic and how he made the best of the situation.

    So many golden nuggets are in this episode so don't miss it!
