Thanks, Ronald.....Yep, that's me.

Something I never thought I would achieve when I started as an umpire.

Just kidding, congrats.

Lucky you. I'm still on the holding pattern for the one that won't make.

OTOH, I've done the Gold twice, this is the one I haven't had, and hope to have at some point; also on it several years ago, when it didn't make in Auburn.

This is my 2nd Gold, and after this I will start looking at the Women's. I truly hold it as an honor to be selected for the Gold or any other ASA National Tournament. I am looking forward to it very much. I too was going to Auburn in 2009 but that one never materialized, here is to hoping this one goes for your sake. Have fun, because I know I will in OKC.

Thanks

Hope they like HOT and MUGGY. We had close to 15 guys go down last year at the 12U. Saw a guy from Ohio that literally looked like he was melting. A scorcher for sure. Even some locals went down.
