The Buckeyes are Coming! (To Greenville on Saturday March 24!)

Good Evening and a warm O-H!

I wanted to share some exciting news for any locals interested. Select Alumni of the Ohio State University Football program will be coming to Greenville on Saturday night March 24 to take on the Greenville Area All-Stars in a Charity Basketball game. The Buckeyes have been touring the area throughout the month of March and from first hand experience I can attest the games have been competitive, fun, and loaded with names you will recognize.

In Tipp City on March 3, the Buckeye team featured '02 National Championship team members Dustin Fox (Minnesota Vikings in NFL), Simon Fraser (Atlanta Falcons in NFL), and Andy Groom (Washington Redskins in NFL) as well as James Cotton, Stanley Jackson ('97 Rose Bowl Champions), Todd Boeckman (St. Henry Redskin!) and Roy Hall (Indianapolis Colts in the NFL).

In Vandalia on March 10, the Buckeye team featured Brian Hartline (NFL- Miami Dolphins), Andy Katzenmoyer (All-American, former New England Patriot), Michael Wiley (Dallas Cowboys in NFL), Maurice Wells, Stanley Jackson, Ahmed Plummer (San Francisco 49ers in NFL) and Todd Boeckman.

The lineup will not be revealed ahead of time and is subject to change. The Ohio State Alumni of Darke County nor Scott '05 are affiliated with this appearance, just spreading some news to Buckeye Fans.

The game starts at 7 PM, with doors opening at 6. A free autograph signing will take place during half time.

Go Bucks!
