I want to give Ron Callen a big shout out "WOW". For those not at the game he sang the POLISH national anthem for JO. I guess that's where all the talk of "family" rings true. Very impressed. Thanks Ron

She did and it was touching. Kt's aunt and uncle escorted her tonight since her family could not attend.
Family really means something to this team, it's not just a buzz word.

Jo reports: He got all the words right. He must have started practicing the day she committed.

I will never forget Ron Callan singing the Polish National Anthem today. Unless his real name is Ron Callanowski, I am VERY impressed.

Oregon and Washington are included in the other 49 states. Obviously. I believe the territories, while US property, have their own national anthems, and compete as separate countries in international sporting competitions.
Should we ever have a player from Puerto Rico or American Samoa, I'd expect to hear the anthems from those territories on senior day.
This thread got off-track when someone made a tasteless remark suggesting that California is not part of the United States in a veiled attempt to make a political joke, and got called on it. It's not a place I'd choose to live, but it is the most populous and probably the most influential and important state in the country.

Those players deserve our unqualified respect. They shouldn’t be used as a sharpening stone for someone’s idiotic political axe-grinding. |

Not to break the cool thread going on, or even worse to be "Polly Positive" and dent my reputation... BUT,
Without actually looking it up, is any other D1 school having a late Winter/Early Spring as good as OSU's... softball, baseball, MBB, WBB, Gymnastics, wrestling (ok... come on being inclusive)??
I know someone will look it up...
