Watauga vs West Wilkes ... 2/26

This is my opening Game of the Week. I know the game will be very emotional and it's the perfect way to start off the season.

I only have one request; Feb 26 at 6:30 pm in Boone, NC is not a recipe for wearing my new shorts and T-Shirt. Can someone please do something about the weather? ...and if you don't have those kind of connections, can you at least bring an extra heater. My bones do not like cold!!!!!!!


PS- do I need to bring a sled just in case? My little bodyguard wouldn't mind having snow after the game

 

Designer shorts

Those new shorts really look good on you my friend. Stay warm!!

 

Hey Braves !!!

My sons have been sick with that bug up there !! But they LOVE App.State and aren't planning on coming home this summer. Next year will be their Senior year so they are going to work up there over the summer !! My wife gets sad,but more room for ole dad. ( J/K )

I would like to remind everybody about what is making this game so special. I hope everybody that can, will come out and honor this young man and his family. It will be a magical night!

about the meeting... there was a pretty big meeting... jv and varsity baseball players up here were called up to attend... players got released from football and basketball so they could be there... johnny greene who just got drafted was there along with seth breitenstein, scotty wilcox, chachi, chaz quinn, along with about 35 of the current players ... Drews number 12 will be retired the first home game of the season... a patch will be worn on all the watauga jerseys for this season with the number 12 on it... we are looking at embroidering 12 on the back of the hats also... we are hoping the first game will consist of drews family and the 04 team coming back for the retiring jersey ceremony... no one will run out to left field for pregame and we will run out to louisiana saturday night which was drews song... a moment of silence will be in honor of Drew and then the left fielder will run out. No one will ever be allowed to wear 12 again in memory of Drew. He was a great left fielder a great hustler and the true definition of a blue collar worker. He will be missed in watauga forever. R.I.P Drew... the returning players were very emotional while talking to us and very ready to take action and commemorate drew and help out anyway possible. The next season will definitely be in honor of drew and dedicated to him. Its been very emotional up here. p.s. none of this is official but this is what was picked out in the meeting as things that were wanted to act on and do. There was alot of other ideas that got thrown out and these are what were left. We have already started to work on them though so hopefully it will work out. Everyone come out to the first home game for the Newells in memory of Drew.
