On behalf of all former Wildcat Baseball players, we urge the New Bloomfield Board of Education to consider truly ‘restoring the roar’ and naming the beautiful new baseball complex after one of Missouri’s all-time best baseball coaches… Rodney Haley. By naming the complex after Coach Haley those of you on New Bloomfield’s Board of Education will be directly responsible for connecting the past to the present and “Restoring the Roar”.
We, the undersigned, call on the New Bloomfield Board of Education to rightfully name the new baseball field after former coach Rodney Haley.
