One of my favorite things about the NCAA is that you can go down to the first floor and grab 25-cent sodas during any part of the day. Even better than the refreshing colas, however, is walking by friendly colleagues on your way to the vending machines and stopping to have a brief conversation.
The people at the national office all seem to love what they do, but I???m not sure anybody is much happier than Byron Hatch, assistant director of membership services. Byron always goes out of his way to say hello, see how you are and ask what???s new. It???s a pleasure to work with him and I only wish our paths crossed more often.
A lawyer and former tax consultant, Byron introduces himself on today???s edition of Faces of the NCAA. In our conversation, Byron discusses his battle with cancer, his daily charge at the national office and how his first step in the door was saying hello to Myles Brand in Texas.
