Let’s play ball! The Tate High School 16th Annual Strike Out Cancer Game was a HOME RUN! We are thankful to be selected a second time as a recipient of the proceeds raised and donations for the game. Baptist Health and Rally Gulf Coast were selected again too.

Coach Wyatt’s field presentation moved us and we learned since the 2010 inception of this annual game they have raised and donated over $250K in the fight against all cancers.

All hearts were touched for the annual field ceremony when cancer survivors are invited to the field to share their name and years of cancer survival and presented flowers by Lady Aggie’s Softball Team.

Go Aggies!
