One of them Backwood Hicks

Who says Iowa Parkin's can't make something of themselves? This one did! This is Chase Wright, a couple years behind me in school, PITCHING for the New York Yankees in Spring Training just a few days ago. I knew he was in their AAA Ball Club for several years and it looks as if he is just about ready for the Big Leagues. So here's a big "GO HAWKS" to Chase! Glad to see him fulfilling his dream. I'm sure his family is proud! Only thing that could be better is if he were pitching for Boston, Detroit, Texas, Houston, or anybody but the Yanks!
