THE
VOICE OF THE KENTUCKY WILDCATS
Tom
Leach is excited about entering his 11th season calling the play
by play action for the University of Kentucky Football and Basketball
Wildcats. In fact, he's quite optimistic about the football Wildcats,
which have not been the traditional powerhouse in college sports
as their basketball counterparts.
Leach
said the football season is shaping up to the "most anticipated"
in some time. Although, the schedule is a tough one, he thinks this
team has something "special" that could produce one of those memorable
seasons.
He's not the only one, Coach Rich Brooks, was also upbeat about
the team's chances at an SEC showcase in Birmingham last week. Leach
says Brooks is not known for hyperbole, so he was pleased that the
coach didn't appear to be "tempering fans enthusiasm."
Leach believes U.K. may have the best offense in what he calls the
"best league," the SEC. He thinks the Cats will stand up well against
tough opponents like Tennessee, Florida and Louisville.
"Kentucky hasn't had a sustained success in football, but if they
consistently get Bowl Games, it is the first step to begin building
upon, and to claim that next rung on the ladder," said Leach.
On the basketball side, the Cats have a new coach, Billy Gillispie,
who is generating a lot of interest. Leach said there is a lot of
buzz and momentum about this year's season that could feature four
starting guards.
"They may be a team limited in size, but not in style," commented
Leach.
After fielding questions from the Club about the Cats, Leach queried
members with a trivia question, which Dan Key successfully answered
to win an autographed Wildcat Football program autographed by Coach
Brooks.

the McCracken County School Board and Chairman of the Airport Board,

NEW
MEMBER INDUCTED
President
George inducted his first new member of the year today, Erin Whitlock,
sponsored by Tara Kolb. Erin is a native of Louisville, who moved
here with her husband recently, although she travels back and forth
each week to work as an account representative for Tech Systems in
Lexington. She is a graduate of Centre College, a golfer and a marathon
runner. She and her husband are building a new home here and are members
of St. Thomas More. She and Tara are also members of a group of women,

their husband's Nascar addictions. Welcome to the Club Erin!
