True. I called a game at age 20 at my alma mater Woodland HS in Maine. And I called my first game at Bellows Free Academy in St Albans VT last season where I attended my first two years at age 48.

Just wanted to say that that's awesome.

So we have talked enough on the board that you'll hook me up with her right? I'll get you my email if you need it. HER I'd like to see in the fishnets!:D

I've never met her, but I hope that if I ever do, we'd be kissing cousins. BTW - I went to HS with Jerry Colangelo's sister, FWIW.

BTW - here's a trivia question about Jerry Colangelo. When he was in HS, he was the #1 pitcher on the HS baseball team rotation. Who was #2?

Answer - Jim Bouton! That's right - back then (very late 50s), Jerry was rated better than a guy who went on to win World Series games with the Yankees. Strange how things turn out sometimes.

Also BTW - the HS is Bloom in Chicago Heights, IL. Also my alma mater. Jerry has stayed in touch with the HS and is the Honorary Chairman of the Scholarship Committee. He still remembers his roots. Cool.
