WEATHERFORD, Okla. – The longtime relationship connecting the Southwestern Oklahoma State University baseball team and Sonic Drive-In of Weatherford has been extended as Sonic owner Tommy Sims was on campus recently to present SWOSU coach
Zack Saunders with his 2021 contribution for Bulldog Baseball program.
Sims has donated thousands of dollars to the SWOSU Baseball program, making a donation each year for more than two decades as a part of the Sonic Corporation partnership program. Saunders said this year's generous gift from Sims will help his program with facility upgrades and other summer projects at the SWOSU Athletic Complex.
"The continued generosity of Tommy Sims and Sonic of Weatherford is very appreciated by the SWOSU Baseball program," Saunders said. "Through the years, his contributions have allowed us to make great strides to help improve facilities, fund scholarships and drive excellence at SWOSU and we are deeply grateful to Tommy for that."
Saunders recently completed his 10th season as the head coach of SWOSU Baseball and the Bulldogs finished 21-18 this spring, which marks their eighth winning season of the past decade.
