The Central Michigan football team had defeated Western Michigan for the first time since 2013 — the first time during my four years at Central Michigan University.
Trailing by 14 points with eight minutes remaining, both teams were going through the motions on offense as rain continued to pour down Nov. 1 at Waldo Stadium in Kalamazoo.
My game story was ready to go. I began to prepare for the long drive back to Mount Pleasant, once again disappointed.
