Former Griz Standouts on Sports Talk Tonight

A football player turned basketball and soccer coach; a basketball player turned movie maker.

It was a fun Wednesday on Sports Talk Tonight, as Scott Gurnsey and I got to visit with former University of Montana Lady Griz basketball star Megan Harrington. Megan joined us in studio to talk about a documentary she is making, "The House That Rob Built," chronicling the coaching legacy of Robin Selvig, who retired last year after being the head man on the Lady Griz bench for 38 years. Megan's labor of love is scheduled to air on Montana PBS and we loved hearing about the project.

We also got a phone call from former Griz football standout Travis Walker, not talk football and his great accomplishments as a wide receiver, but rather his girls' soccer and basketball coaching duties. Travis called from Indiana, where he is guiding an amazing local U14 team in a huge weekend tournament.  And we briefly discussed his upcoming new duty: head coach for Loyola Sacred Heart girls basketball.

A great night with great guests. We hope you enjoy!
