I have no sports expertise. I give myself points for having tried many sports, even if I excelled at none of them. I might hold the record for lowest season batting average in my home town's little league. I like math. I like sports. Maybe I occasionally have something interesting to say in the intersection.

Thomas Callaghan

While having no experience in big time collegiate athletics, I am an enthusiastic participant and viewer of numerous sports, especially Ultimate, volleyball, spikeball, and soccer.
