Saturday night's ETSU game -
"Justin Littrell" night

-fundraiser for young cancer victim
(story)
Wow! What a big day Justin has had today! I want to thank the Lipscomb Atheletic Department for all you have done for us. It was a very special night for all of us but especially for Justin. Thank you to the baseball team for remembering Justin in your prayers and for the cool signed baseball. We will treasure this night always. Justin did a great job throwing the ball tonight and he talked to everyone on the team and gave them all fives. You could tell he enjoyed being out and being the center of attention(he always likes that, don't know where he gets that from). Thank you to all that came out and gave your time and donations. We appreciate everyone. It is times like these you remember the good in the wo 3:00.00000rld. We have finished round 5 and hope that it will be the last. We start the first of our scans on May 9th. Pray that all come back clean and we can move on to the maintenance process. I will put pictures up later when I get some. My camera had no card in it so I have to rely on everyone elses pictures. Love you all! Please continue to pray for our sweet boy. Pray for all of the patients who still have a long way to go.

"There is a rich baseball tradition at Lipscomb,
and I find out more about the great history every day.
There is a lot of energy and a lot of support here for baseball.
I am 100 percent convinced that we can fill this place up for each and every game.
We want to lead this program to even greater days,
and we are going to put a good product on the field.
It will be a product that everyone can be proud of and be excited to call their own.
I'm happy that everyone can take ownership in what we are about to do here.”
