MSU President Mark E. Keenum, left, and Athletic Director Scott Stricklin, second from left, stopped by the tornado relief staging area for the Mississippi Office of Homeland Security Task Force on Wednesday [April 30]. The two MSU administrators delivered 200 Bulldog baseball tickets to regional response team members, including food unit leader Jamie Roberson, right, and logistics section chief Damon Green (in background), who are staged at the MSU Palmeiro Center. While these teams are equipped and trained to respond to natural disasters such as the tornadoes that ripped through Mississippi on Monday [April 28], they also are encouraged to experience other activities, which a competitive MSU baseball game can provide.
