Lady Patriots Advance to the Regionals

Well it took a District Final to get me away from my kids rec. basketball games to watch the Lady Patriots. What an exciting game as the Patriots won in OT to win their first District Championship in the long tradition of basketball at Tri-Village. You can read more about the game at tvpatriots.com

What a great crowd and atmosphere at that game. The folks from TV area and alumni throughout the area came into Tipp City to support the Patriots. The great TV Pep Band was there too and that was a great touch to add to the excitement.

The Lady Patriots will play at Springfield High School this Thursday against the Southeastern Trojans from South Charleston. It will be in the Trojans back yard since they are located in Clark County. I think they will meet their match since you know everybody from Patriot land will be there to support their team.

I'll be there to help Dale from tvpatriots to cover the game. Between one of the websites we'll give you all the details, so be sure to check back with us.

Good Luck to the Lady Patriots and to the Bethel Bees and Franklin Monroe Jets on the boys side as they play in the District Finals. Go Pats! Go CCC!
