Murray State Baseball student-athlete Joe McMahon had early exposure to professional sports. He often went to work with his dad, who was the equipment manager for more than 1,000 games in the National Hockey League. That love of sports is now leading this recent MSU graduate into the National Football League with the New York Jets. McMahon's value to the team is measured in many ways and playing time isn't usually one of them. Also today, Wayback Wednesday returns to 2003, the last time MSU won the OVC Baseball Tournament and Racer fans have an NBA Draft party to attend June 20. Also, we'll put a wrap on a tremendous week for Linette Holmslykke at the NCAA Women's Golf Finals.
