FILE - This March 8, 2013, file photo, shows Lone Peak High School's Nick Emery, right, and teammate Eric Mika, center, walking in to the Gold Room to meet Utah Gov. Gary Herbert during the team's visit to the Utah State Capitol, in Salt Lake City, after the team won the 5A State Basketball Championship. Brigham Young University-bound basketball player Nick Emery, 18, is headed off on a Mormon mission to Germany on May 1 as he leads the first wave of elite-LDS athletes able to serve a mission and still have an uninterrupted college career. Thanks to the recent lowering of the missionary age, from 19 to 18 for men; and 21 to 19 for women; college athletes like Emery can avoid having to play one year, go away for two years and come back and finish their careers.
