The University of Maryland Eastern Shore's Sharon Brummelll is one of few full-time bowling coaches in the country. The summer is her time to reel in all the players she can to the Hawks' program. She recently traveled to Dallas for the United State Bowling Congress' annual convention and she'll be in Las Vegas this week to recruit at the USBC Junior Gold tournament. "It's like a meat market," Brummell said. "There are usually 600-700 female bowlers there. It's a big recruiting spot for us."

Navy rifle coach Bill Kelley is the founder and owner of the Gun Center, a full-time retail store in Frederick, and during the summer he devotes most of his time to the store. "It's funny. Most of the people who come in here don't realize that, No. 1, I'm the rifle coach at the Naval Academy, and No. 2, that there's even an NCAA sport in rifle," he said.

Goucher men's lacrosse coach Kyle Hannan is awaiting a new type of ankle surgery after suffering a gruesome injury in a pick-up basketball game in May 2009. Hannan's pain hasn't affected the Gophers, who finished 11-6 this spring. "This guy is a tough son of a gun, because he puts up with this pain," Goucher Athletic Director Geoffrey Miller said. "He doesn't let it affect his job. We couldn't ask for anything more. He's turned this lacrosse program around and has given us everything we really hoped for when we hired him 11 years ago."

Mike Davenport, director of the rowing program at Washington College, will teach an online entrepreneurship class in the fall. In preparation for that, he started his own online business this summer to learn the ins and outs of the craft. The business, stickfiguresimple.com, creates stick figure drawings in order to help companies and their employees understand concepts better. Davenport said it doesn't make a lot of money, but that's not its purpose. "It's been successful from the standpoint that I've learned an amazing amount about online business," he said. "I want to give these kids insight into what online business models are out there. On what college kids can do with $100."

The Winston brothers -- all students at Digital Harbor -- spend their summer umpiring Severn Athletic Club baseball games. "It's about the love of the game," said Eric, who will be a senior this fall. "It's totally different from playing, and it makes you appreciate it more. You understand why [umpires] take so much stuff off the players and the crowds."
