The Cavaliers make a great start to the playoffs, an OSU student makes the track team thanks to a halftime competition, and Columbus Crew SC start a new season.
Cavaliers Take Control Of Playoff Series
The Cleveland Cavaliers are up 3-0 in their first-round playoff series against the Boston Celtics. Zack Meisel of Cleveland.com joins the show to talk about the Cavs impressive performances, and potential matchups later in the postseason.
From Fastest Student To Track Team
Last spring Ohio State student Malcolm Branson competed in the Fastest Student Competition at the spring game. He beat out several football players in a preliminary race before losing out to defensive back Doran Grant in the final.
However, Branson's run in The 'Shoe sparked Ohio State's track coaches to invite him to join the team as a walk-on sprinter. Branson spoke to Thomas and Steve about becoming Ohio State's second-fastest student and now a Division I athlete.
OSU students challenged Dontre Wilson in the 40-yard dash. Were any faster than the Buckeye? @OhioStAthletics http://t.co/h5TVcvm8I1
