n Friday night, March 23, the Tate Lady Aggies hosted their 9th Annual Strike 
Out for Cancer game against the West Florida Jaguars at Charlene Varnell Field in 
Cantonment. The game was televised by Blab TV, sponsored by Pete Moore.

Fans enjoyed some fantastic, non typical ballpark food, including pulled pork 

sandwiches, gumbo, Brunswick stew and fried Oreos. Some of the larger items raffl ed were a big 
green egg, Sea World tickets and a pink Yeti cooler.

The night was a huge success raising $25,823 for the American Cancer Society, beating last 

year’s total of $18,538. Since 2010, the strike out cancer game has brought in over $88,000.

The West Florida Jags presented Tate’s head coach Melinda Wyatt with a $7,500 check prior 

to the game, bringing both teams together for this every special event.

Tate went on to win the game 8-0.
