Though I didn't get to see son's first college win,

his mom, sister and I were in attendance for his first college save. I am pleased to add that Dalton earned his first save on March 19 vs Texas Lutheran University, nationally ranked 30 in the DIII Preseason Poll. They have since moved up to a 21 ranking. Son entered in the 6th, with a 4-2 lead, 2 on with 2 outs.

That was followed up by the opportunity to start game 1 of the series with cross-town and conference rival McMurray University. What an honor and we again were in the stands. He competed well, left in the 5th with 2 outs, 2 on with McMurry holding a 1 run lead 3-2. The team however responded and won game 1 & 2 to take the series. First time since 2000 that HSU won series vs McMurray. Awesome!

I am most grateful to a coaching staff allowing this young man to compete for a successful program while getting an education.

I am really enjoying the college baseball experience. I know my son is.
