I've also been there. I had a the best senior year in FIRST and never wanted to quit. I decided to do to Drexel, but because of schoolwork, I wasn't sure how much time I would have to help out a local team.
The great thing about FIRST is that you don't have to help a team to stay involved. That year I volunteered to Ref the Philly Regional. I met great people and got an understanding of the larger scope of FIRST.
After a sub-par year at Drexel and some changes of heart, I'm now back in CT. I also volunteered at competitions last year. I met even more great people and had loads of fun.
Now I'm back helping out my former HS team. I also mentor a local FLL team, and plan on voluteering for more FIRST regionals this year.

You can always stay involved somehow, but you can choose how involved you are.
