First Varsity Game Tonight

After two years and a couple hundred JV, freshman, Jr. high, and rec league games I am finally working my first varsity game tonight. Just a 2-man with a couple of smalls schools. It's the only one I have this year but it's a step.

Get the most out of it. Toss a coach or two, or three, or four.

Congrats!!!

I remember my first "Big Time" game.... My heart jumped into my throat when they played the National Anthem. (Being a soldier, it reminded me of the first time I heard the Anthem in Basic Training with the uniform on....)

I was R and hit an arm on the toss. (Partner) Tweet. Do over....

Approximately 2:00 remaining until halftime, due to "Dry air", I get a bloody nose.

Yep... A memorable experience for me.

I remember my first, 2nd year ..GV, I worked my 9th and jv game before...only one Varsity official showed up, I get the call to stay as I had more experience...by about 40 games. I remember I felt nervous and excited. Game was a blow out, but I remember I wanted more V games
