Born in Tiffin, Ohio, Aylsworth graduated in 1989 with his BFA from Kent State University, Kent, Ohio, and was an artist in residence in the Core Program at the Glassell School of Art, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, from 1989-91.

    LAMAR UNIVERSITY A Mcmber dlhe Texas Stau uoiwsity4y3tan July 29,2003 Mr. Larry Beaulieu KFDM-TV Channel 6 P.O. Box 7128 Beaumont. TX 77726 Dear &@??r. eauli u: Thank you for your corporate sponsorship with Lamar Athletics. Your help this past year enabled Lamar to win three Southland Conference team championships and assisted in several outstanding individual accomplishments, including three student-athletes earning Southland Conference Player of the Year honors. Our baseball team dominated the Southland, winning the regular season title and advancing to the championship game of the NCAA Regional Tournament in Austin. The Cardinals defeated the NCAA National Champion Rice Owls twice during the season and finished the year ranked 22ndin the nation. On the links, our men's and women's golf teams both won conference championships. Chris Stroud, a senior-to-be from Groves, was named conference player of the year for the third straight year and finished third at the NCAA National Championships. Our current success would not be possible without the support we received fkom KFDM-TV Channel 6. Our goal is to be the best overall athletic program in the Southland Conference and be able to compete nationally in each of our 14 intercollegiate sports. For this goal to be realized, our athletic department must be financially secure and superior to our competing universities. Your corporate sponsorship will help us to retain the types of student-athletes and coaches that enable us to be conference champions. Thank you for your commitment to Lamar Athletics and for your generosity toward our vision to be the best.
