May 5, 2009

Texas A&M International University baseball will conclude the 2009 season this weekend with a home series against Heartland Conference perennial power St. Mary's. The Dustdevils and Rattlers will play a doubleheader on Friday and a single game on Saturday, with first pitch at Dustdevil Field scheduled for noon each day.

In addition to striving for a strong finish on the field the Dustdevils are requesting that fans and concerned citizens support a donation drive to benefit Texas military families.

Donations of new dvds, including children's titles, and $10 Wal Mart gift cards will be collected this weekend to support Operation Homefront, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping Texas enlisted military families during times of dire financial crisis. Items will also be accepted at the TAMIU Athletics Office (KCB 107) during normal business hours through May 15.

All fans making a donation are eligible for valuable raffle prizes provided by Wal Mart Super Center located on Bob Bullock Loop.

For more information contact Associate Athletics Director Dan Lathey at 326-2892 during normal business hours.
