Jackson has accepted an offer to play baseball at UIW in San Antonio, Texas. UIW is a Catholic university---University of the Incarnate Word. It has a good reputation both academically and athletically.
But, ye gods! It's 812 miles away! Beth and Billy are a mere 80 miles away, so that's a definite plus.
Jackson was so fortunate to have 2 generous offers and had the difficult task of deciding between two very good baseball programs: Delta State University in Cleveland, Mississippi, and UIW in San Antonio.
Wayne and I may need therapy to get through baseball season next spring, since we'll be too far away to get to many games. But we are proud of Jackson, and proud, too, of the way he has handled this process.
Go Cardinals!
I guess Jackson wins (see your Distance:East vs West post)
