WSBB is based in New Smyrna Beach and is becoming a great partner with Hatters Athletics. They have been running regular interviews over the past several weeks with members of the Stetson staff, including head football coach Roger Hughes, Director of Athletics Jeff Altier and University President Dr. Wendy Libby.
Even if you aren't able to hear WSBB's over the air broadcast, you can listen to the station online through their web site, myam1230.com. People with smart phones can also listen that way, if you go HERE and load the app on your phone.
The show will be on the air live starting at 7 a.m. and will run until 9 a.m. Members of the Stetson football team will be making their way out for an 8:30 a.m. practice throughout the morning.
Some of the guests you can expect to hear from on Friday include both Altier and Hughes, along with men's soccer coach Logan Fleck, new women's lacrosse coach Nicole Moore, volleyball coach Tim Loesch, men's basketball coach Casey Alexander and women's basketball coach Lynn Bria.
In addition, the guest lineup will include DeLand Mayor Bob Apgar, Volusia County Chair Frank Bruno, Volusia County Information Director Dave Byron, Volusia County Council District 1 Representative Andy Kelly, DeLand City Manager Michael Pleus and the Director of Main Street DeLand, Jack Becker.
If there is a quiet moment, I might even be able to sneak in for a couple of minutes.
Be sure to tune in on Friday morning.
Hughes Having a Busy Week
In addition to getting the Stetson football program off the ground, Hatters head coach Roger Hughes has had a busy week with media requests. Several outlets were on hand for the football scrimmage on Wednesday and most of the Orlando television outlets have been to town to talk Stetson football, in addition to a visit from the Orlando Sentinel and the always outstanding coverage from the Daytona Beach News Journal and the West Volusia Beacon.
Hughes will continue with his media blitz tonight when he makes an appearance on 740 AM "The Game" in Orlando for a visit with long-time central Florida sports personality Tracy Dent. That appearance is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. You can listen HERE.
On Saturday morning Hughes will visit with another central Florida sports legend, Sam Cook, on the ES3 Playbook Radio program on WRSO 810. You can listen to that appearance at 10:15 a.m. HERE.
I'll step in for Coach Hughes on Sunday morning to appear on "The Sideline" with Kevin Baldinger, also on WRSO 810.
Coach Hughes will be back on the air in Orlando on Monday when he visits with Dave Baumann on ESPN Radio 1080 AM. That appearance will be at 9:05 a.m. to open the Monday show and can be heard HERE.
It's Time to Play the Game!
As hard as it is to believe, summer is officially over. I know, the calendar shows another month, but summer ends when the college games begin. With the Stetson women's soccer team set to kickoff the 2012 season on Friday night at FIU, summer is over.
The first regular season home event of the year will be on Sunday when the Hatters host Georgia Southern in women's soccer. That game is set for a 1 p.m. start. If you want to get an early start, the Stetson men's soccer squad will play an exhibition game against Florida Southern tomorrow night at 6 p.m.
Home events are thin for the first week of the athletic year, but will crank into full action a week from tomorrow when the Stetson volleyball team hosts the Stetson Classic. That event will include 10 matches over two days with teams from Central Arkansas, Hampton, Florida Atlantic and Wofford joining the Hatters in a round-robin tournament.
If you missed yesterday's football scrimmage, you will have chances to see the Hatters scrimmage at least four more times this fall. The next scrimmage is set for Saturday, September 1, with other scrimmages set for October 6, October 20 and November 3. I would guess there will be at least two more scrimmages mixed in.
