Among those of us who attended the Mountain Hawks’ football game against Penn, I’m sure I’m not the only one who noticed some issues the new PA announcer had during the game. He probably made about a half-dozen mistakes with down/distance announcements and other similar announcements, and at least to my ears those errors became somewhat distracting. I realize it was the new announcer’s first Lehigh football game, and he’ll probably grow into the role, but it was not a good start.
I should note Lafayette also has a new PA announcer and he didn’t have nearly as many problems during the Leopards’ game against Princeton (with the caveat that the Princeton game was Lafayette’s second home game of the season).
