By: Chris Due
LUBBOCK, Texas (October 17, 2011) - Lubbock Christian University baseball head coach Nathan Blackwood has finalized the schedule of the annual Duck/Skunk Fall Intrasquad Baseball Series, which begins Friday, October 28th at Hays Field.
The best-of-five series dates back to the fall of 1970 when then-LCC (Lubbock Christian College) head coach Larry Hays devised the series to celebrate the end of fall practices, but the name Duck/Skunk dates back to 1962, when LCC's first baseball team needed uniforms, and the Post Cereal Mill generously donated some left-over uniforms with a Skunk on them. Duck/Skunk is basically an intrasquad match-up with bragging rights on the line. It serves as LCU's fall schedule for evaluations and preparation for the 2012 season.
The coaching staff will assign head coaches for each squad and they will have a draft consisting of uniform (color), dugout and player selection. The opening three games will be played in consecutive days beginning at 2:30 p.m. on October 28th and running no later than November 3rd depending on the number of games needed to complete the series.
