The podcast is co-hosted by two Portland, Oregon Hall of Famers, Jeff Erdman and Bill Booth, former teammates at James Madison High School in the late 1970s. The podcast’s name reflects the jersey numbers worn by the co-hosts during their playing days. Jeff Erdman is a lifelong and highly respected PIL athlete, coach, athletic director, and supporter. Bill Booth is a longtime advocate for inner-city youth sports and a well-known fundraiser for nonprofit organizations. Both are long-serving board members of the PIL Hall of Fame. We are very excited to help tell the stories of today’s standout PIL student-athletes, highlight the hard-working coaches and their programs, and share the challenges and changes involved in running successful youth athletic programs today.
