Scanned or digital photos can be e-mailed to the Office of Communications at bwagnon@bsc.edu, or photographic prints may be sent through campus mail to Box 549004.

Moving on up—Birmingham-Southern Baseball Coach Brian Shoop (far left) meets on the mound during an NCAA Regional Tournament game June 4 against Clemson with three of the players who helped lead the Panthers into NCAA postseason play in their first season of eligibility—(from left) Ryan Griffith, a senior catcher from Pisgah; Wes Letson, a junior pitcher from Hartselle; and Connor Robertson, a senior first baseman/pitcher from Tuscaloosa. Over a four-day span, the trio played in the first NCAA postseason tournament of any kind for a Birmingham-Southern sports team, earned the college's first-ever NCAA postseason victory, and were drafted in the 2004 Major League Baseball Draft. Griffith and Robertson also received their BSC diplomas during that span. Letson was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 11th round; Griffith was drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 22nd round; Robertson was drafted by the Oakland A's in the 31st round.
