Central Washington University softball players Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace were honored at the 2008 AT&T National Sportsmanship Awards for "the home run that touched them all." Holtman and Wallace carried Western Oregon University's Sara Tucholsky (right) around the bases after the senior hit her first home run - only to tear her ACL as she rounded first base. |

The National Sportsmanship Awards is the signature event of the St. Louis Sports Commission’s Sportsmanship Initiative. By recognizing outstanding individuals who set a high standard with their approach on and off the field, the organization hopes to set the tone for all parents, coaches and fans to be “good sports” and to pass those values on to children in the community. It’s the Sports Commission’s goal to make St. Louis a model community for good sportsmanship and home to America’s best sports. |
