Columbus

McDonald’s All-American Games - ESPNU & ESPN








Another night of 7 hours of sleep – one could get spoiled livin’ like this!

Never enough time… Alex and I jammed all day getting the stuff ready for our double-header. Thank God we got that bonus half set day yesterday or we would of never gotten it all done!

We had gotten word that Jared Sullinger, the #2 player in the country, played at Northland High School (Columbus) and had signed with Ohio State for the 2010-11 season, might not be playing tonight. He had gotten food poisoning the night before and was currently in the hospital on IVs getting hydrated.

It was somewhat of a blow to us since he was local and should draw a crowd.

However, shortly before game time, we learned he would indeed play.

Our producer needed an additional stats person to relay player stats over the phone back to Bristol so they could include the stats on the “bottom line” during the game.

So we hired Dave to do it. Easiest money he ever made! And he had a blast doing it!

Once again, our wonderful crew pulled of 2 really great games! So much fun! Can’t wait til we get to do it all again next year!
