On August 25th Town Square Television went live on Game of the Week for the first time in over a decade. It was a girls soccer match between Simley and South St. Paul to kick off the 2011 fall sports season.
We got a paltry 11 hits that day.
Little did we know, our LIVE coverage would end up reaching places we never expected. Two months later we were back at Ettinger Field with a trip to the state tournament on the line for the Packers, and viewers were watching. They were watching all across the country, and all across the world…..
Hey Toby,
My name is Adam Sethre. I believe you spoke with my dad the other night at the South St Paul vs New Life Academy girls soccer game. My sister is Alicia, the starting goalie for the Packers. I am actually in the Navy and have been for almost the past 5 years. I did a service project with yall when I was in 8th grade. I was hooked up by a guy whose last name was Conlon. I forget his first name, but when my dad mentioned your name I said to myself, hey I know that guy. I’m currently on deployment supporting operation New Dawn and operation Enduring Freedom, far away from the states, and I was able to watch that soccer game via internet yesterday night. Just wanted to say I appreciate what you do, and for letting me watch my sisters soccer game 9 time zones away. Thanks again, and have a great day!!!!
