My guess is WPRI 12 might stream it live to their website.

I'm assuming it'll be recorded as well so people can watch it when they have the chance.

I hope we get a better pic of Archie. He looks pretty mean in the one we're using. Although I did read somewhere that he got his nickname because his family thought he reminded them of Archie Bunker. ATP, why don't you ask him about that? :D

Agreed about the photos used in the school media and also on Projo. One would think Archie’s team would supply some good shots for the school to use. But let’s not worry about such things. Rejoice!

This place is almost full already and will be packed by 1030. The empty chairs are reserved for team, family and staff.
