About Samantha »

Let's see, where to begin? I am 25 years old and grew up in a sports-crazy household. I bleed maize and blue for the Wolverines and love the Green Bay Packers. My favorite sports are definitely football, softball, hockey, and gymnastics. I just moved to Phoenix, Arizona. I currently work at Sports620 KTAR and Scottsdale Gymnastics.

    Don't be shy!

    Hey!

    Would you mind checking out my latest article? It talks about the 2009 super sophomores for the Ohio State buckeyes! If you're not a buckeye fan, it's an interesting read and you could extend you're knowledge on college football. Thanks!
