This may be posted elsewhere on the board, and for that I apologize, but anyway here is my question to all of you...

I am 20 years old, and have been umpring various levels (little league through DII College) and have been told by coaches / other members of my board that I should go to one of the pro schools and try to get a pro job. I have also been told that the older you are, the less chance you stand of being one of the 25 from each schools send to the PBUC.

Sooo do I go to the camp this January and forgo my last year and a half of college or do I wait until i graduate and go to the camp when I am 22? If being 20 rather than 22 makes a big enough difference, I don't see how I can turn it down. However, if I don't make it, I've got to go back to college (until I try it again the next year). Also, if I do make it and something happens like a strike or I get hurt, I have no college degree.

Your thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated, and Happy Thanksgiving.
