Pressed Into Service

[Raymond]

I had a friend get his big D1 break when he was leaving his own D2 game and about 20 miles away a D1 game started off with the R getting a concussion on the opening toss. My friend was listening on the radio, called his supervisor (coordinator for both conferences), and was inserted into the game for the 2nd half.

Next season he received about 15-20 games D1 games from that supervisor including a nationally televised ESPN game.
