The Picayune Lady Tide held their annual banquet to recognize both players and supporters.  The banquet was held at the Senior

Center located just behind Wal Mart on El Patch Parkway.

Coach Kristi Mitchell recognized John Young for his help providing frame by frame photos to allow the Lady Tide to correct their

hitting.

Young presented Mitchell a picture of her swing from the recent alumni game.

Robert Puyper, who Mitchell stated "is by far the most dedicated fan of all Maroon Tide sports" was

recognized for his efforts.  

Each team member was presented a long sleeve pullover shirt.  Natalie Guy, the lone senior on this year's

squad, received her lettermen's jacket and a plague acknowledging her leadership to the Maroon Tide program.
