Mr. Biddle thanks for the excellent info!

Mr. Watters - coffee sounds good but I don't see AC much. I live in JC (Junction City). If you are ever out this way - feel free to look me up. Dean Welsh -- email at tamwelsh@yahoo.com

Placing at kid's state is a great accomplishment, no matter if he won it or not since it is not chopped up into a bunch little sections like 6a, 5a, 4a, and 1,2,3a . . . . Many a HS state champ NEVER placed at kids would be my guess . . . I'm sure some of you others can help me out with this thought. So, I'd say your son has a natural talent that a great HS coach has and is currently shaping even more. Putting those nice points/facets to make that rough diamond SHINE! And, man did he SHINE last night!

Take care and if we ever meet again - I would enjoy sitting down and visiting with you.

Dean
