7 in all, 4 on The Hill, 3 on the road versus the Bobcats and The Fort…Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :
Romans 16:24 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
Howard Mayo and his Motovational Nugget of the Day :
Tonight will be a work on both sides of The Boulevard kind of an evening. The start at Cavalier Park, the middle at Tommy Thompson Field, and then the focus goes to Columbus, Indiana, for the West Virginia Tech University – IU – Columbus weekend baseball series. Hard to believe that the season will end a week from Saturday.
You now know what I know, and I hope you have a Blessed Day π!
Thank you to the folks at the Register – Herald for the coverage!
In the 18 years that Skipper Lawrence Nesselrodt and I have been trying to move the needle on West Virginia Tech University Baseball, many a student athlete have worn our uniform.
With that said, few, if any, have worn it better than Mr Logan Stump. Everything about the young man, on and off the Diamond π was what you would want to have representing your program !
Knowing that Logan will treat his new uniform in the same manner that he treated ours makes me believe that Raleigh County is a better place to live today !
Morning π BrewToday is the deadline to sign up for Saturday evening !Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :
Colossians 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Howard Mayo and his Motovational Nugget for the Day :Sweeping the non-conference double header yesterday puts WVU-T at 11-10 on the year outside of the league !
Kevin Burress and I will try once again to make Coaches Nick and Deana feel welcome at Cavalier Park later today, and I’m sure that someone in Casey’s group will do the same down at Bill Worrell Field !
The photo is one I took at the Appalachian League championship game a few years back.
The title comes from the brain π§ of Joe Walsh back in 1983. Before he joined the Eagles, Walsh released an album titled, ” You bought it, You name it,” and it stuck with me. Pretty clever marketing is one of my favorite things in life.
The goal for the past twenty years has been to create a set of books π, seven in number per the days of the week. The seventh and final one will break from the routine of sports and focus on faith.
Nancy Sorrells is returning for the third time to take the point on producing the book π and hopefully, she will be there for the seventh and final one.
One introduction chapter is to be followed by 13 more with some artwork mixed in. The locations involved will focus on Beckley, West Virginia, Carroll County, Virginia, Page County, Virginia, the San Juan Islands π and the greater St. Louis area.
Stories about the amazing people you will meet and things you will see π when one spends 50 years around various levels of Ball Diamonds π.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to contribute material for the book over the past 12 months. While it could have used a few more, here and there, I feel pretty good about what we have.
Let’s play ball !
100% positive stories pieced together in hopes of telling a good story !
