| Introduction | I began covering college baseball in 1981 — watching a team that included four future major league players (Tony Gwynn, Bobby Meacham, Al Newman and Mark Williamson) and a major league umpire (Kerwin Danley) — as a student at San Diego State. That began an association with the game that lasted throughout a 25-year newspaper career. My local focus has been on the Division I programs at SDSU and USD, with occasional coverage of other area colleges. I've traveled the Road to Omaha (1,604 miles from San Diego) to cover the College World Series seven times for The Sporting News. I frequently contribute to Baseball America, which is nice. |
