A veteran of 20 years of college coaching, Head Coach Tony Ciccarello discusses the return of Blue Devil softball with co-hosts Josh Schmit and Trevor Hauer.

It's Hot Stove Time with Fredonia State baseball coach Matt Palisin. Among the topics are the hope for games in 2021, the loss of the 2020 season, team leadership, and the recruiting process. He also gives updates on two baseball alums, Rob Herrmann and Chris Messina. Fredonia State senior Josh Schmit and Sports Information Director Jerry Reilly are the co-hosts.

Despite the postponement of its fall season, the Fredonia State men's soccer team still managed to practice in small groups, then larger groups, while continuing to bond during virtual team meetings. Head Coach PJ Gondek discusses how the fall season went and what's next during the weeks to come, the challenge he's facing keeping his players forward-thinking, plus recruiting and alumni reach-out. Co-hosts are Josh Schmit and Jerry Reilly.

Sarah Cartmill, head coach of Fredonia State women's basketball, covers several topics during Episode 4 of The Blue Devil Banter Podcast. Among the highlights: How her players have adapted during a pandemic, how the team stays connected, the challenge coaches face coming up with creative ways to keep players engaged, the type of players she recruits, and keeping it light on social media. She also touches on a motivational quote she's adopted from a former coaching colleague who left us too early. Hosted by Fredonia State senior Josh Schmit and Sports Information Director Jerry Reilly.
