Raschker facing tennis, soccer stars for Atlanta honor
Phil Raschker, as we’ve reported, is up for Atlanta Amateur Athlete of the Year. Now we know her competition: two Melanies — a tennis star and a soccer goalie. Here’s part of the press release: “Finalists . . . include: Amateur Athlete Of The Year – The metro Atlanta amateur athlete who demonstrates outstanding personal achievement and excellence in his/her chosen sport. Melanie Oudin – Tennis, Philippa Raschker – Running, and Melanie Wilson – Soccer (Atlanta Silverbacks Women – Goalkeeper).” Winners will be honored at the 2008 Atlanta Sports Awards on Monday, Feb. 11, at the Historic Fox Theatre’s Egyptian Ballroom. Let’s hope the Melanies split the vote and the award goes to Phil.
