Hello Jaguar and Silver Knights fans.
It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Diamond Sports Media will not broadcast Hilliard Bradley and Bishop Ready games this year. I have decided to retire from broadcasting in order to focus my efforts on my roles as Head Boys Golf Coach and Head Baseball Coach at Bishop Ready High School. It has been an honor to be the on-air Voice of the Jags for the past ten years. The Bradley administration, coaches, players, parents, students, fans and others tuned into our broadcasts of hundreds of Jaguar contests and always supported our entire crew. Thank you to all of them. I cherish the friendships I have made with Jaguar athletic personnel including a host of athletic administrators and coaches, all of whom are the best in the in the business. Thank you to our sponsors over the years, especially the Bradley Athletic Booster Association, Jeni Reitz Realty, Tomi and Rod Carmean of The Pizza House of Columbus and the fine folks at Bat Flip Baseball. Thank you to my many broadcast partners over the years. It was such an honor and joy to work with each of them - some for one or two broadcasts, some for many broadcasts, including The Colonel, Christopher Warner, Seth "Ducky" Duckworth and Zach Scott. All of them brought a uniqueness and flavor to the broadcasts that greatly enhanced my ability to bring the action to our listeners and viewers. Thank you to the great student-athletes over the years who provided non-stop excitement and excellence - their committment to their sports and their love for family and school made it easy to call their contests. Thanks to the fans - y'all are the best! Thank you Jaguar Family for an incredible ride! I will always cherish it and will always be a Jaguar at heart. Good luck and Go Jags!
Sincerely,
Eric Welch
