Announcement imminent on B2R's drive to acquire alternate camouflage jerseys for the 2014 NCAA season
Maryville, Mo. - The 2014 NCAA Division 2 baseball season is 6 months away from first pitch but the B2R has been developing a plan to acquire permanent camouflage baseball jerseys for the team in honor of the members of the United States Armed Forces, past, present, and future, and to pay tribute to the sacrifices the service members and their families make so our Country can enjoy freedom and our way of life.
In the spring of 2012, 6-7 boosters got together to come up with the funds to acquire a special cotton camouflage uniform top. The team celebrated the United States Armed Forces with a special color guard consisting of members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion. The brothers of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia sang a special National Anthem and God Bless America. The tops were only designed to be used one time. Later, the Northwest football team sported a special camouflage jersey during a home game in the Fall of 2012. I cannot remember a time when any other varsity team wore camouflage as a uniform before the baseball team did it in the Spring of 2012. If there was another Northwest varsity team that did so, it was a long time ago.
Its time to make it a permanent thing.
Stay tuned for the exciting announcement.
Go Cats!!
