2016 December 14 by wpadmin

A TOTAL OF 515 new or gently used soft stuffed toys were collected for the U.S Marine Corps Reserve’s annual Toys for Tots campaign during Saturday’s toy toss at the Missouri State University-West Plains Grizzly Basketball game against Iowa Western Community College in the West Plains Civic Center arena. Fans who brought a toy to the game received free admission. Toys were then tossed onto the court after the Grizzlies scored their first points of the contest and given to Toys for Tots for distribution to children in the area who are less fortunate, organizers said. Student organizations were challenged by Missouri State-West Plains Chancellor Drew Bennett to have their members attend the game and bring toys for a $100 prize. The Ag Club won the challenge with 34 members in attendance and 134 stuffed toys collected and donated. With the toys are, from left, Grizzly Basketball Head Coach Chris Popp, U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Jack McNevin, and Grizzly Cheerleaders Peytan Bassett, Michael Mayo, Reece Totty, Skyler Tompkins, Colt Tompkins, Chris Rodgers-Smith and Seth Evans.
