ASA National Umpire School- Columbus, Ohio

[BretMan]

I noticed that they're holding two schools that same weekend, which is kind of unusual.

I wonder which location will get the "A-list" national staffers? Can't see too many opting for cold and dreary Ohio over warm and sunny Florida!

Interesting point. As an aside, the head of training, Jim Craig, is scheduled to a clinic in Atlanta on Saturday, so he wouldn't be at either.

Just a guess, but I would expect you might see Julie Johnson, Jerry Fick, Bernie Profato, maybe Mike DeLeo in Columbus; perhaps Larry Montgomery, Max Wilkes, Dick Gayler, maybe Gene Harrison or Walt Sparks in Florida. That would be the geographical probables, anyway, and some strong clinicians in each group.

Hopefully, some one from each site will let us know next week, just for the information.

As an attendee in FL, I received notice that
"Instructors coming from the ASA are: Larry Montgomery, Gene Harrison and Max Wilkes."

Oh you'll have a great time with Larry! He's a great instructor, and he'll keep you on your toes! He was at the Cary, NC, clinic in 2008, and I'll go to any of his schools any day of the week.

Pretty fair guess work on my part. All three were in the group of five I suggested as most likely.

So what's your FL LOTTO pick for Wed. ?
