Sure – we don’t have a radio station in our county, but several of our HS team’s away meets and tournaments are broadcast by local radio stations each year. The school has also used online streaming services to cover meets.
Many “small town schools” have service areas well beyond city limits. In my town of 1500 people, the elementary school serves roughly 1/3 of the county; they have one bus serving the town and 6 covering routes “out in the county”.
Deep Biblical literacy may be something of a rarity among Christian lay folk these days, but one still encounters “deeper than most”. I won’t claim to have read it in Greek; I first heard ‘Paraclete’ in adult Sunday School at our small-town Baptist church, because our teacher had us working from multiple translations as a matter of routine. Whenever we hit what seemed a significant “differing take” among translations, we hit the concordances to get to the root words. One can’t really do exegesis without them…
“the use of an unusual word in the first comment above…which would require familiarity with an obscure book which I’d bet none of the followers of Gil and company on this site have read.”

Seriously? You might want to reconsider that statement, friend.
Any serious reader/student of the Christian Scriptures has a reasonable chance of knowing “Paraclete”/“parakletos”, particularly if they’re among those who regularly compare/contrast the various Biblical translations.
Didn’t somone raise a stink about her hijab at last year’s State Tournament?
