Happy 41st Birthday Matt Mason


Happy 41st Birthday Matt Mason

The B2R wants to take a moment to celebrate Matt Mason.  He would have turned 41 years old today.  Matt died serving our country in Afghanistan on August 6, 2011.  Matt was a Chief Special Warfare Operator.

An American hero.  A Navy S.E.A.L.  An alumnus of Northwest Missouri State.  A Bearcat baseball player.  A husband.  A father.


In April 2012, the Bearcats baseball team became the first varsity sport Northwest Missouri State to commemorate the United States Armed Services by wearing special camouflage jerseys.  In 2014, the baseball team became the first varsity sport at Northwest Missouri State to make a camouflage jersey a regular and continuing part of their uniform to recognize and celebrate the sacrifices of the Matt Mason and the service members of the United States Armed Forces, past, present, and future.



Never Forget.

Go USA!!
