PENGUINS WIN, THOMAS DALE FALLS



Well it looks like the Pittsburgh Penguins are going to try to make it a series again after last nights 3-2 win over the Detroit Red Wings. It looked like to me the Penguins stepped up there physical play a bit last night which may have taken there Red Wings off there game and it didn't hurt that Sidney Crosby had two goals as well. They will play game 4 on Saturday night in Pittsburgh. The Thomas Dale Knights baseball season came to an end yesterday as Patrick Henry picked up a 13-5 win in the completion of Tuesday's suspended game, even though the TD lost yesterday they had a very good season winning 20 games. The CR baseball regionals continue tonight with James River playing Patrick and Mills Godwin playing Cosby, James River are the defending AAA state champs. After a pretty cool day yesterday its going to start feeling like summer again this weekend with highs in the mid to upper 80's after today high in the upper 70's. It's still hard to believe that this year school year is about over. MICKEY

Don't be afraid of the space between your
dreams and reality. If you can dream it,
you can make it so.

SOMETHING TO PONDER: How can someone draw a blank?

Optimism: Let us be of good cheer, however, remembering that the misfortunes hardest to bear are those which never come.
