My name is Will DiClemente I am a freshman in high school @ Bellaire St Johns in southeast Ohio. I play football, basketball and run track for the Fighting Irish. I do the 100,200,400, discus, 800, 300 hurdles, all relays, and long jump in track. I am a Small Forward in Basketball @ 6'2" tall. I play Wide Receiver and Safety in football but we're too small to have a freshman team so I just play for JV

Fantastic to have you aboard, Will!! How long have you been following the Falcons? What turned you on to us!? Will you be making it to any games this season?

Stick around, we'd love to have you in BG in a few years!!

Wasn't Dan Shoemaker (hoopster from the late '70s) from Bellaire? Or was he from Bellfontaine(sp?)?

i don't know about that, but my mom's a martins ferry native (mfhs class of 1960), and that area has produced no shortage of fine pro athletes, including lou groza and his brother alex (who was on the kentucky basketball team and was involved in a point shaving scandal so he never got his due in pro ball), phil and joe niekro, bill jobko, bobby douglas, john "hondo" havlicek.
it's great so see a belmont county presence on the board.

Not to mention Chad Brinker, Ohio Bobcats all-time best running back. I first started liking the Falcons back when we had Andy Sahm under center and had a bad team. I actually started rooting for them because I have a friend who liked Toledo, now hes an Ohio State fan, and he said that we're terrible ( and we were) but now we are great. Ive only been to one Falcons game, and it was the NIU game last season. Im probly gonna go to either the Marshall game or the Eastern Michigan game this year.
