Got a little something special for this preview.......not going to go into boring statistical details or matchup details. My goal in this post is to inspire.....and what better way to do it than with pre-game speeches.
Enjoy...and Happy Thanksgiving.
Here's another, I think I used this back when the basketball team was making their run. Please excuse the redundancy.
Pumped up? Good. I'm nowhere near done. The following are audio files of Orrville games from WQKT.com's archives. Some of our great games over the past two seasons. (Note: These are big files.)

Orrville vs Triway - Week 2 - 2010
2010 - Orrville vs Triway - Week 11 Playoff - This one missed Stewart Turner's 93-yard TD catch. It's already 6-6.
