"The 2008 College World Series and the Bulldog victory is still on the minds of many here in the valley," said Associate Athletics Director of External Relations Paul Ladwig. "We wanted to bring the author, the head coach and one the stars together one more time to make sure your copy of the book is signed, or to purchase your copy of the book. This is a wonderful holiday treat for all of our baseball fans."
