I envy you. I made all state three times in high school freshman - junior years chairs 21-12-8. My junior year I was placed first in the first two rounds and on the third I choked(literally). I took a big breath on a rest and inhaled some spit down the wrong pipe. I missed about a whole two measures and that bumped me down 7 chairs. What you've done is a great accomplishment that will live in your mind forever. I hope you don't take it lightly. Congrats.

First of all congratulations man. Second of all having been there (played petrouchka in 05) college is a whole new world. Be prepared to an even greater extent for college auditions and for professional auditions. It's a whole different skill set. Good luck.
