Today was my lucky day! I went to Blacksburg to witness one of the best traditions in sports and I was absolutely blown away by Enter Sandman. The Hokies couldn’t pull off the upset over No. 16 Louisville, but they kept it close in the first half. Here’s my game recap:

I had so much fun today in the studio for 8Sports Blitz for the first time! The way things were set up this week I got to go to two games, one of them being Thomas Jefferson @ Deep Run. This was a close one, and there were some crazy highlights in the first half! Check them out here:

Week 8 was one of the best Games of the Week yet! The Dinwiddie community was so hospitable and that crowd with the cowbells and the cannons made for such a cool atmosphere! Thomas Dale held their own but the Generals get it done to improve to 8-0. Here's my full recap:

How is it already Week 7 of the high school football season? Our Game of the Week was between the Glen Allen High School Jaguars and the Mills E. Godwin High School Eagles. With the playoffs looming, this one was a big one for both teams. Here's my full recap:

I had a great time covering some CIAA football this weekend! I went out to Petersburg for the Virginia State University Trojans' first home game of the season against the Johnson C. Smith University Golden Bulls. Here's some of the highlights I shot from tonight's episode of 8Sports Overtime:

It was a central district matchup for our Week 6 8Sports Blitz Game of the Week. This game was a blast! Back to back interceptions allowed the Thomas Dale Knights to defeat the Meadowbrook Monarchs with 20 seconds left on the clock. Also, no one told this girl from Louisiana it gets cold in early October in Virginia... learned that the hard way tonight. Here's my full recap:

Yesterday was a rainy one, but I cover football rain or shine! Here's the highlights on 8Sports Overtime from yesterday's Richmond Spiders Football game where they made a huge 4th-quarter comeback against Howard:

This weekend I got to cover the University of Richmond Spiders' home opener against VMI. Sadly I was only out there for half of the first quarter before it started pouring rain, but luckily for me their offense had a hot start so I was able to get some highlights before the game got delayed. Here's those highlights from 8Sports Overtime-- our new show on ABC 8News - WRIC.

For week 4 of our high school football season here in central Virginia, our 8Sports Blitz Game of the Week was between the #2 Varina Blue Devils and the #8 Hermitage Panthers. The past couple years this matchup has been close--18-10 last year and 7-6 the year before. As for tonight, some tough penalties on both sides but the Blue Devils get it done. Great game to both teams!

This weekend was a blast! I went to Charlottesville on Saturday to cover my first Virginia football game, and I gotta say, I missed covering college football in person. I know it's a little late, but here's my recap anyway. The Cavaliers comfortably beat the Tribe 55-16, and there doesn't look like there's too much standing in the way of this team reaching a bowl game at the end of the season. As for Sunday... I went to the Diamond for it's farewell game and anchored in the debut of 8Sports Overtime-- our brand new sports show. Unfortunately I don't have any content from that to share due to technical difficulties, but trust that you'll see plenty Overtime content very soon. It's only been two months here at ABC 8News - WRIC but I've had so much fun on the journey so far!

Week 3 of high school football is in the books! Today I covered our third 8Sports Blitz Game of the Week, the first to go to overtime. The Dinwiddie Generals came into town and beat the Highland Springs Springers 28-14. Our audience is 3 for 3 in their picks! Here's my full recap if you missed out on the action:
