BACK THE HOME TEAM: BRICK BY BRICK The Stephen F. Austin State University Lumberjack baseball team needs your support. The team’s temporary facility at Jaycees Field is in need of replacement. Almost half of the total investment to build a new structure has been secured. However, $350,000 is still needed. In order to make this dream a reality, SFA is reaching out to alumni and friends to ask for your financial support by purchasing $1,000 engraved bricks that will become part of the new clubhouse. Donors also may consider purchasing additional bricks to honor family members, teammates and friends. In addition, donations of any amount are greatly appreciated.

ROBERT “BOB” AND TYANN AKINS CLUBHOUSE The clubhouse will be named in honor of Bob and Tyann Akins. The facility will provide dressing and training rooms, office and storage space, and upgrade amenities to help the university continue to attract the best student-athletes.

ABOUT BOB AKINS Bob Akins, a 1958 SFA alumnus and football letterman, was a highly successful high school baseball coach and member of the Texas High School Coaches Association Hall of Fame. He was an avid supporter of Lumberjack baseball. Akins volunteered many service hours overseeing the maintenance of the Lumberjack’s baseball facility. Until his death in 2013, Akins, along with his son, Stacy, was a fixture in the stands cheering the Lumberjacks on to victory.


PROPOSED FLOOR PLAN

LUMBERJACKS ACHIEVE GREAT THINGS Since the re-establishment of Lumberjack baseball in 2006, the list of team and individual accomplishments has been impressive: •

13 Lumberjacks were drafted by Major League Baseball

Hunter Dozier selected MLB first-round draft pick in 2013 – the Southland Conference’s highest-ever MLB selection

Three Lumberjacks named SLC Player and Hitter of the Year

SLC Relief Pitcher of the Year (Brett Higginbotham, 2013)

Four Lumberjacks named All-American

22 SLC All-Conference honors

Seven first-team selections

Four second-team selections

11 third-team selections

A MESSAGE FROM THE COACH “Thank you to our loyal alumni, friends and fans for considering this opportunity to support Lumberjack baseball. Your donations will help build a new clubhouse that will tremendously benefit our players by supplying them with a modern facility to train and prepare for games. In addition, it will assist the coaching staff in continuing to recruit the best Lumberjacks to SFA.” - Johnny Cardenas, Lumberjack baseball head coach
