You have the po tential of tripling your turnout by making phone calls in the few weeks leading up to the event. 3. Theme � "1 he theme of your event will determine bow elaborate you will make yrmr plans. Special an niversaries, for example fifty years since founding, bring people back; a centennial anniversary will really bring people out. If you have a special anniversary with which you can work, it is good advice not to tie into a pre-planned university event, for example, homecoming. You will find that your turnout will not be any less than if you had decided to share the spodigbt with the university event.

  • Brandon Belt
    BRANDON BELT • Born April 20, 1988, in Nacogdoches, Texas, in a house his father built. • Parents are Darrell and Janice (pronounced Ja-neece). He has one younger brother, Cameron. Father is a geometry teacher at Brandon’s high school, Hudson High in Lufkin. His mother is a hairdresser. • As a senior at Hudson High, Belt earned district MVP, All-State and All-Amer- ica honors. Standout pitcher – thought he’d make the major leagues in that position. • Had a verbal agreement with Cubs coming out of high school to be drafted in high rounds and paid high-round money. But Cubs didn’t come through and Red Sox drafted him the 11th round. Disappointed, Belt went to college instead. “Everything I went through happened for a reason,’’ he says. “I’m so happy I went to college. I matured so much as a baseball player and as a person and I made so many friends.’’ • Played one year for San Jacinto College in Houston before transferring to University of Texas. (Same two colleges Roger Clemens attended.) Majored in education. Helped propel Texas to the College World Series in 2009, where the Longhorns lost in the Championship game to LSU. • Injuries as a junior at University of Texas forced him to give up pitching altogether. When his hitting dropped off – he was barely hitting .300 two thirds into his junior year – Brandon sank to the lowest point in his life. He had always wanted to be pro baseball player and now he was wondering if he would make it. Then his grandfather, James Peter- son, died.

    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No. 4, June 29, 2009) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Joe Dier NCBWA Membership: More than four months after its official start back on Feb. 20, the 2009 college baseball season has found its way into the record books. What a season it was, with LSU, one of five different teams to hold down the top position in the NCBWA’s weekly national rankings during the year and besting Texas to capture the College World Series championship series at Omaha’s historic Rosenblatt Stadium. Worth noting from the 63rd national championship tournament is that the 15-game event drew a record 336,076 fans to Rosenblatt Stadium. And though this year’s champion, LSU, is among the 23 teams that have previously reigned as NCAA baseball champions, college baseball welcomed two newcomers to its national championship event. Southern Miss and Virginia became the 107th and 108th schools to compete in the CWS. More than a third of the schools that compete on the NCAA Division I level have now advanced to college baseball’s biggest stage. With construction on the new 24,000-seat TD Ameritrade Stadium in downtown Omaha underway and venerable Rosenblatt Stadium set to host its 61st and final CWS in 2010, there could added incentive, if only for sentimental reasons, to advance to college baseball’s “final eight” next season. Back to 2009, though, and congratulations to our recently-crowned kings of diamonds: NCAA Division I national champion LSU (56-17), NCAA Division II champion Lynn University (46-16) of Boca Raton, Fla., and NCAA Division III champion University of St.

  • SF Giants Press Clips Friday, 21, 2018
    SF Giants Press Clips Friday, 21, 2018 San Francisco Chronicle A toast to Hunter Pence and his memorable Giants’ carrer John Shea Hunter Pence gets cheered when he steps out of the dugout. When he takes the field. When he’s introduced as a pinch-hitter. When he gets a big hit. Even when he makes an out. Pence is treated like a legend — an overused word, but perhaps fitting in this case — and a two-time champion who was instrumental and inspirational at the height of the Giants’ glory days. Because that’s who he is, even though he’s hitting a career-worst .211. Pence remains a crowd favorite despite his struggles, despite the team’s struggles, and this will be accentuated in the final week of the season. That starts with Monday’s homestand opener and runs through the Sept. 30 finale against the Dodgers, the final opportunities for fans to stand and cheer the immensely popular 35-year-old outfielder. The Giants plan an on-field tribute to Pence on that last day. “I appreciate it every day regardless of conditions,” Pence said of his love affair with fans. “Ultimately, it just goes to show it’s a big reflection of how good a fan base they are and how good a community the Giants have built. It’s a product of that. 1 “In sports and life in general, not everything’s always positive. But there’s a benefit from some of the difficult things. It’s part of life. The ebb and flow of the good times and the bad times.” Pence is winding down the final days of his contract and, considering the Giants’ plan to reshape the roster and get younger next year, the final days of his career in San Francisco.
