Mitch Strohman

They say change is inevitable. When you're in your 20's and 30's, retirement feels impossibly distant. When retirement is imminent, you wonder how did all those years, all those decades fly by so darn quickly? Grateful, honored, humbled, nervous and so many other feelings flooding my heart and soul today. Saying "thank you" is woefully inadequate to every person who has listened, watched, and supported me as the Voice of the Lumberjacks and as a face of NAU over the decades. I'll have more to say when the road offically ends in March, but for now I have a lot more games to call for @NAUBasketball and a LOT more "3-Shot...BANGS" left in me! I'm excited for the rest of the regular season, Starch Madness with the @BigSkyMBB Championships in Boise, and hopefully more games after that! I plan to savor every precious moment...starting with the call Thursday night at the Sacramento State Hornets starting at 7:30 pm MT! GO Jacks!!! #RaiseTheFlag | #BigSkyMBB

The 116th all time meeting between @MSUBobcatsMBB and @NAUBasketball is tonight in #Flagstaff! The Bobcats are in the hunt for a share of the @BigSkyMBB championship and the top seed in #StarchMadness in Boise! @NAU need positive momentum heading to Boise! @JamesMalamas and on the call on @ESPNPlus at 6 pm MT: espn.com/watch/player/r… My final call in the Skydome! 🥹🙏 #RaiseTheFlag #BigSkyMBB #GoCatsGo

Okay, I confess...I LOVE calling @BigSkyMBB and tonight I'm savoring one final call for @NAUBasketball at one of the most beautiful basketball venues anywhere...the ICCU Arena, home of the Idaho Vandals! Tonight is the 78th meeting on the hardcourt between the Lumberjacks and the Vandals. Only 3 games remain in the @BigSkyConf regular season, and there are so many seeding scenarios up for grabs in #StarchMadness, the Big Sky Championship in #Boise! Tonight's game is important to both teams! I'll have your call tonight at 6:30 pm MST on the @Learfield @NAU Lumberjack Radio Network and the Varsity Network App!

Intense. Focused. Physical. 3 words I would use to describe tonight's practice in Moscow, Idaho for @NAUCoachBurcar's Lumberjacks. With 3 games to go in the regular season of @BigSkyMBB, the 1st of those games for @NAUBasketball is tomorrow night at the Idaho Vandals. Idaho beat @NAU in their 1st meeting in #Flagstaff in late January. The Jacks are looking to turn the tables on the Vandals on their home court!
