Josh McGehee already has produced a sports show for the past two years.
Brentwood senior Josh McGehee plans on a career in sports communications, working for a major network. Listening to McGehee speak, it sounds like he's off to a good start.

Brentwood baseball has a nearly clean slate from last year's district-winning team.
Brentwood head coach Mike Imergoot said he has a young team and predicted they'd take some lumps, but said the goal is the state championship.

Junior infielder Dylan McGehee was First Team All-Conference, and Imergoot said he's putting him at first base this year. Second-team All-Conference senior Steven Sadler returns as a catcher.

Great pitching was the story for both wins.
Brentwood and Maplewood Richmond Heights both sailed through their first-round district baseball games behind good pitching. Brentwood dominated Crossroads 11-0 in five innings and MRH handled Cleveland 11-3 at the district games at Brentwood Park. MRH coach Jonathan Webb said the star of the game for them was freshman Zech Biship. "He pitched one of the best games we've had this year," Webb said. "When a kid comes out there and strikes out 16, you got a pretty good chance to win." See more photos at Maplewood-Brentwood Patch Facebook page. (Like It!) Sophomore Ryan Vogeli pitched a one-hit shutout for the Eagles. "He faced 16 batters–one above the minimum. Didn't walk a guy and struck out five," Brentwood coach Mike Imergoot said. "That's…
