It’s that time of year again. JCU students have returned to campus, the air will soon be getting cooler, and college football is in the air. This season the Blue Streaks start off with a bye, and open the season at home against the Flying Dutchman of Hope College (Mich.). You may recall that the Streaks lost a heartbreaker in the opener last season, and you can bet that they are looking to reverse their fortune against the Dutchman this year.
The rest of the Ohio Athletic Conference is loaded. Mount Union, Ohio Northern, and Capital are all ranked in the D3football.com Top 25 poll. There are also several “middle of the road” teams in the OAC who could play the role of spoiler. Head coach Regis Scafe is looking to guide his squad to its 19th consecutive winning season, certainly an impressive stat, but it will not come easy. Scafe will probably look for a little more consistency from the Blue Streaks who went 5-0 at home last season, but just 1-4 on the road.
As a listener you will receive what we hope you have come to expect from the WJCU Sports Department: the best possible broadcast. You will hear some familiar voices, and some new ones, but our goal - to bring you total Blue Streak coverage - remains the same. All ten football games will be broadcast over the airwaves and here at WJCU.org. I will sum up the week in Blue Streak sports on Carroll Corner, here on WJCU. The WJCU Sports Department is excited for the upcoming season, and we hope that you will come along for the ride.
