THE CUP IS COMING BACK TO RALEIGH!!!

[Hugh Patton @HughPatton]

I know there’s big things going on in the golf world this weekend, but how bout Wingate’s Amely Bochaton winning the D2 individual national title by THIRTEEN shots at PGA National with rounds of 68-67-68

Seems like something that @KylePorterNS would be interested in.

[Hugh Patton @HughPatton]

A couple of legends

To say the #WINgate lacrosse teams are in good hands would be an understatement. Excited to watch them go for a couple more titles this weekend

Both teams playing for a SAC tourney title Sunday in Matthews!

@awfulannouncing FloSports has nothing to do with actually staffing games or supplying equipment. Mostly the issue is with the understaffed and under budgeted athletic departments trying to stream every single game, usually depending on students.

RIP Macie - The greatest dog there has ever been. A dog that could brighten up any day with her never-ending sweetness. Gonna miss coming home to that happy face every day.

Thank you Macie for 13 years of truly being man’s best friend. The best there ever was.

[Hugh Patton @HughPatton]

@JustinRayGolf @LPGA What are the stats for the 12th hole?

[Hugh Patton @HughPatton]

There’s no team that’s more dangerous than a @WingateBaseball team that loses game one of a tourney.

60 runs on 81 hits as the ‘Dogs won 6 straight for their 8th SAC Tourney title. I’ve seen this somewhere before.

[Wingate Bulldogs @WU_Bulldogs]

Winning never gets old

20 SAC titles
4 region championships
National runner-up
10 top-10 national finishes
15th straight excellence cup

27 trophies in one year is just absurd, but I assume somehow this coming year will be even better. ‘Dogs just keep raising the bar

[Wingate Bulldogs @WU_Bulldogs]
