2017 December 13 by Vickie Driskell

MORE THAN 300 new or gently used soft stuffed toys were collected Saturday during Missouri State University-West Plains’ second annual Grizzly Toy Toss at the Holiday Inn Toy Toss Classic. The event was held during the Grizzlies’ 1 p.m. game against Iowa Western Community College at the West Plains Civic Center. 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 the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve’s annual Toys for Tots campaign for distribution to children in the area who are less fortunate, organizers said. With the toys are, from left, Grizzly Cheer Team members Carson Abernatha, Zachary Cook, Brandon Owens, Jayse Muncy, Noah Mullican and Colt Tompkins; U.S. Marine Corps Ret.
