After struggling with a nasty case of writer's block all summer, I'm pleased to announce my first website feature article is finished, and published. Here's an excerpt for you:

Eersnation.com Feature Article: The Miramar Connection

by Cameron J. Underwood

1,094 miles.

That’s the distance from Morgantown, WV to Miramar, FL.

While that may seem like a great distance, these 2 cities, and the football programs that call them home, are much closer than it would appear on any map.

For years, players have graduated from Miramar High School and migrated north to Morgantown
in pursuit of athletic greatness, and academic success. This transition is not an easy one, and took a
trailblazer to forge a path where there had not been one before.
