First college level game...
I am doing my first college level game (double header this weekend) and strangely, I am not too nervous. (I must be forgetting something...lol)

Any advice?

Its a piece of cake.... one pitch at a time, If you've been doing club ball for any length of time, you've probably done better games than you will see at the J.C. Div III or Div II level...

Advice? None.

Congrats, though! I do have plenty of congrats for you.

I hope its good ball ... its a Div I school. I actually have never seen the team play before .. but I've worked their fund raising tournament before.

It's fall ball. Relax, and enjoy. Are you working a three man crew? If so, there are some practices allowed in NCAA (such as rimming), that aren't traditionally accepted mechanics in ASA.

depends on who you are working with. If it is any of the boys from Lafayette, then yes they do a lot of rimming after the game, especially if my buddy JM is around

Alright Steven. I know you will have no problems. Who you working with and
what teams involved?

Just have fun.
