Editor's note: "For the Record" is a weekly series featuring former stand-out Ball State athletes and their lives after college.
On June 4, 2002, in Fishers, Indiana, Bryan Bullington sits in front of a computer on the second floor of his parents' home. Ball State baseball head coach Rich Maloney sits on one side of him, Bullington's mom on the other. His dad, overtaken by nerves, is outside pacing in anticipation.
Also in the room is his then-girlfriend and now-wife, Lauren, and many other friends from school. Bullington, a junior pitcher from Ball State, is projected to be selected with one of the first three picks of the 2002 MLB Draft.
