Show Notes

Riel has a heart of gold. Right before the start of the Division I College Basketball season, we chopped it up at length about his early life in Upstate, NY, his love of sport, his start in officiating, and his long and winding journey, traveling far and wide in reffing, and making a greater impact in the greater Las Vegas area though his camps. All that and more, my conversation with Riel, now.
