Softball Locker Drive Begins

October 29, 2009

The Southwestern Oklahoma State University softball team hopes it will ready itself for spring games with a new multi-facet facility that will house a new press area, locker room and coach's office.

The team's new locker room will be located on the lower level of a new two-story pressbox currently under construction. SWOSU coach Tami Loy is busily trying to raise enough money to help fund the building of 25 lockers to house both her team and coaching staff."

"The new locker room will go a long ways in helping us continue to attract top-notch student athletes to this program," Loy said.

In an effort to help offset some of the projected cost of the new locker room, Loy has initiated an Adopt-A-Locker Project.

 "By adopting a locker, we can ensure that a number of our alumni or supporters can leave a lasting and a permanent reminder to the Bulldogs of the future," she said.

Each adopted locker will have the former player's name engraved on it, along with the years that they played at SWOSU and any honors that they may have won. Cost for a locker adoption is one-time fee of $400.

Those wanting to adopt a locker or have any other questions regarding the program are encouraged to call Loy at 580-774-3226 or email her at tami.loy@swosu.edu
