Since when are they officially referred to in print or otherwise as "The Allentown Cadets?"

1977Kingsmen Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I think we all knew this was coming. They will lose the experience of competing against BD early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAYGO Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 That's too bad, was hoping to see them out west. I wish all of those performers and musicians a great season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
