WCWS Umpires?
 

Have they announced the Regional/Super Regional/WCWS Umpires yet? Couldn't find it on Cactus Umpires if they have.

I just know that once again, I am not one of them! :confused: :D

Me, neither... Until they do college SP. :D:eek:

I know umpires in line for different levels have been notified, but if I remember correctly, I was under the impression these assignments would not be published in advance, but as the playoffs moved forward.

I could be wrong. I know we have a couple on here and do not believe it would be inappropriate if they strutted a little bit on here when they received their assignment(s).

No public list exists, and there are no plans for posting on any websites this year. The DI regional umpires are selected. DI supers and championships umpires are not selected at this time, as they will be selected at the conclusion of the regional/supers weekends. This is a change from years past.

DII regional selection came out yesterday (as the sites were announced Sunday night). The DII super regional umpires will be notified next week pending site selections (also something new this year). DII championship and DIII first round/championship umpires have received notice of their selections.

Oh lord, don't start that up. I heard some frats were thinking of something along the lines of this. That's all we need, a bunch of drunken frat boys playing for national titles and collegiate pride. As if the number of kegs consumed during the year wasn't enough. :D

Why not? I've still got my trophy! University of Wisconsin, baby!

Ugh.

As I learned being an intramural official and later supervisor in college, it is amazing what some people will do for a stupid t-shirt. :D

I was referring to the beer drinking...

But yes, having called intramural softball and supervised it as well, I know exactly what you're talking about.

Funny thing was that I was one of few umpires who threw people out. I wasn't going to take their $h!t. Best part about it was as I was walking back to the building to check out, my boss was walking out of the building. I had ejected someone the previous day. In front of everyone he says, "hey, Dave! I heard you tossed someone out yesterday! Awesome work, man!" and gave me the thumbs up.

Gotta love a program director who's got your back!

Mike,
I know of 3 here that have assignments. I'm sure there's some tales to come later - one of them will be with one of your deputies.

I know 2 of the guys working with Mike's Deputy. I am sure the stories will come, although they seem to have a fairly good crew and very good teams.

checked the mail box... nope.
Guess i will have to wait for a few more years. :D

shoot, mine must be lost in the mail.

I did get to call the Louisiana 5A state championship game this past weekend and my wife gave birth to a 7lb 5oz baby girl, 12 hours later..... that should carry me for a few days. :) (big time hijack attempt ;) )

Heck thats almost as good as the WCWS! Congrats on the baby!
