Interviews with Jaleesa Osborne, Caitlyn Long and Ben Delia

The winter season is quickly coming to a head, both in the weather bearing down throughout the region and in each of five ODAC sports.  Swimming and indoor track (men and women) will competing in their championships in just a few weeks, with basketball (men and women) not following far behind.

In this edition of the ODAC Podcast, Brad and J.J. focus on swimming and women's basketball.  Randolph-Macon College swimming coach, Ben Delia, joins the duo for a look into his Yellow Jackets' squad.  He also takes us a bit into what to expect at the upcoming ODAC/Atlantic States Swimming Championships on February 12-14 at Radford University's Dedmon Center.

After brief discussion of men's hoops, it's on to women's roundball.  Roanoke College senior captains, Jaleesa Osborne and Caitlyn Long, give us their thoughts on the season, the Maroons big upcoming matchup against Randolph-Macon, and a view on what it's like to be dual-sport student-athletes in the ODAC.  Both have participated in championships in track & field (Osborne) and volleyball (Long), but each hopes a chance at a basketball crown is in their futures.
