OMAHA!
Somewhere in the middle of America!
I don't normally miss Omaha. But, not only did I graduate from high school right down HWY 75 in Bellevue, but I've been to many College World Series through the years, and right now I'm thinking back fondly on '98 and the 2000 series.
State didn't make the 2000 series, but I was there for all two weeks, right after graduation, having a great time with old friends. Playing golf in the mornings and watching college baseball in the afternoons and getting into all sorts of trouble in the evenings. Great, great times.
Good to see State back where they belong in the CWS!
