    We are about $400 short

    If you havent donated to baseball or softball yet, please consider giving to softball. We only need a few more donations and we will be through. This is a worthwhile project and the team has already told me numerous times that they appreciate what we are doing.

    Anything you can give will help. Thanks.

    Re: We are about $400 short

    here is what others are saying:


    "softball is truely a sport that is suffering under this AD and Pres. There were glory days but we are FAR removed from those. I know for an absolute fact that a deal was made for a new score board serveral years ago by an assistant I am very close to. There was going to be near zero cost to Tech for the upgrade from that 1950's scoreboard that they have now. The AD shot it down. This isn't the only sport suffering under Mr Oakes, just one I'm closer to. (M-I-C K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E)" - Choudawg

    "Just another sport where we are not keeping up with the "Joneses" ??

    We are not even close to being on the map in softball, at least, not yet.
    Our facilities need a MAJOR upgrade so we can attract some additional talent.
    A new brick backstop would be (at least) a start in the right direction.
    And, this is something we (alumni) can actually get accomplished.

    Make checks out to Louisiana Tech University Foundation - Softball.

    Send them to:

    Jason Jones
    P.O. Box 576
    Ruston, LA71273" - nadb


    "My 9-year old daughter loves Tech softball. We haven't missed a home game in three seasons. I would be great if we could really support the girls this year.


    Put the first home game on your calendar: March 9 at 4pm. They will be playing several out-of-town tournaments between now and then." - roughedge



    "Some of you all are diehards that have NOT helped out with the projects for Softball and Baseball and now radio for Baseball.

    Get on it now so we can meet the Softball goal and Baseball radio goal.

    If you have donated DO NOT POST HERE, only those who have NOT that will PLEASE join with us." - MichiganDAWG

    I guess I can pay my doctor bills later. They don't need the money anyway, right? Besides, it would be sort of crappy of me not to give since I did start up the softball team at the High School where I taught.

    Re: We are about $400 short

    if you are waiting on tax refund checks, go ahead and pledge, i will wait on your check. just make sure and file as soon as u can :icon_wink .



    if u dont think $2,500 is enough to complete the project, well go ahead and donate and give us a chance. i just sent out over 80 letters and emails to non bbbers and i will send out a lot more when i get a list of past donors from sarah tomorrow. i plan on going well over the $2,500 that we raise on this board so sarah can buy whatever she needs.

    and i WILL drop the bricks off in the front parking lot right by the stands so they will have to do something with them.
    I want to get to $2,500 by saturday and I promise to quit asking. We just need a few more pledges.
