Awright Ralph...  I'm "makin' the call"  TU wins it all!

Trinity senior RB Chris Baer won 3rd place in the Men's Javelin yesterday ... All-American in that event for the second year in a row!  Trinity first-year OL Justin Campbell competes in the Men's Discus this afternoon.

In the team competition, University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and McMurry (Texas) University are tied atop the men's standing with 14 points after five of 21 events.  Trinity University is eighth with 9 points.

GO TIGERS!

TigerDad, our 4x100 relay failed to make the finals by 0.03 secs.  I was counting on 2 points (7th place) from them.

The 8 points from Freshman Gavan Bass and the 6 points from Thomas Dmitri in the Pole Vault are what I had anticipated.  (It looks like Dmitri tied for first on height, but lost tie-breakers on jumps.)

Our 4x400 failed to make the finals by a half second.  I was counting on 1 point out of that event.

On the second day of competition, Trinity first-year OL Justin Campbell of Victoria, Texas threw 164'7" (50.18m) to win third place in the Men's Discus competition and gain NCAA DIII All-American status.  Congratulations to Justin and all six of the Trinity Tiger men and women for their success this season!

What a blessing to be in Marietta, Ohio this week to get to see them compete!

OK .... NOW it's almost football season, Tex!!

GO TU TIGERS!!

Thanks, Ron!  It was a great trip ... glad I got to be there to see all the Tiger men & women compete.  Five trophies out of six athletes ... the men finished tied for sixth in the nation (with only three men competing!)  AWESOME!

From the last page...
Trinity is playing Azusa Pacific as their OOC game since Coloroado College dropped?
Does anybody know if they (AP) still run their crazy 3-4, 2-5 type defense.  I remember watching film on it while at Millsaps.  They had backers blitzing from everywhere.

Congrats to TU Baer and Campbell.  I look forward to seeing the OL that TU puts together next season.

I see that Trinity has exceeded its $200M fundraising goal for the Campaign for Trinity U, but are keeping it open to seek additional funds*.   Since the stadium improvements were to be funded by the Campaign, one hopes that the changes will be coming soon.  It's probably too late for next season; hopefully TU gets to it before my 20-year reunion rolls around (2011). 

* - "additional support will be sought for the Re-envisioning Trinity Initiatives: interdisciplinary programs that capitalize on Trinity's strengths and meet the demands of the global society in which today's graduates must thrive. These initiatives include Trinity's Center for Entrepreneurship, Interdisciplinary Science and Education through Research' East Asian Studies at Trinity (EAST), Urban Engagement, and Mexico, the America's, and Spain (MAS).

Congratulations!  That is great in these economic times. :)

(El Tea Gray--re: Tues. 6/2/09--200 days to "the Ship")

FYI!
73 days to Trinity Football Report Day
95 days to Game #1
165 days to SCAC Championship
200 days to "the Ship"

Also, over on the ASC board there is a lot of  "conversation" regarding UMHB and HSU both making a strong run for "the Ship";  I hope they both are really counting TU out, hope...hope?


Ron, I have heard that rough estimates for the TU stadium work you mentioned above run from a low of $8 million to a high of $13 million.  It appears that the $5 million allocation for athletics from the $200+ million funding of the Campaign will not cover the entire stadium project; even if the entire $5 million goes to football (which it probably will not).

That's too bad ... sounds like they want to do it right, tho.

The SCAC is offering a deal on their "state your case" t-shirts, $2 for short sleeve, $3 for long (plius shipping):  http://www.scacsports.com/store/index

What kind of work is Trinity wanting to do with their football field?
