Vision for Champions



Our Mission
The goal of the Vision for Champions Campaign is to endow a multi-phase baseball program that will enable DBU to become a fully funded and nationally recognized NCAA Division I championship baseball team, actively supporting and upholding the Christ-centered goals of Dallas Baptist University.
 
At DBU, baseball is an exciting game — it's our flagship intercollegiate sport, a key program that draws quality undergraduates to our Christ-centered university, and an activity that increases community interest and support. For hundreds of DBU athletes and thousands of students and community supporters, baseball is the sport of champions.
 
There has never been a time like the present to endow a program with so much potential for continued success. Our vision takes baseball to the community to touch the lives of children through baseball clinics, camps, and special games. It gives our high school youth role models and educational dreams. It also offers the community at large a college team with Christian integrity and values, one that promotes winning in life as well as winning the game.
 
With your help, DBU can touch the lives of countless people by building a nationally recognized NCAA championship baseball program centered on Christian principles. Your contributions will ensure that baseball remains a vital part of DBU and an essential program that trains servant leaders and champions for Christ while touching the lives of thousands of people. Make the difference today!

Athletes of the Month
Kayla Marshall
Cheerleading

Kayla Marshall is the Female Athlete Spotlight for the month of March.  Marshall is a junior from Garland, Texas and is a member of the 2009-2010 Patriot Cheerleading Squad.

 

Marshall is a graduate from Dallas Christian School in Garland, Texas and is currently in her second year at DBU as a Patriot Cheerleader.  She has excelled both on the court as a cheerleader and in the classroom as a student.  Her performances have granted her the opportunity to graduate early with a bachelor degree in psychology in August of 2010 to begin her career as a Children’s Minister.

 

While at DBU, Kayla has had a heart for serving the community.  She has given her time and efforts as an avid contributor in the local community by serving in the children’s ministry at both the Fellowship First Baptist Church in Royce City, Texas, and New Liberty Baptist Church in Garland, Texas for the past two years.

 

Marshall has also participated in many community service projects with the Patriot Cheerleaders including partnering with First Baptist Church in Canton, Texas to provide child care for a local women’s ministry, participating in the DFW Greet the Troops program, and conducting cheerleading clinics while on the DBU Global Sports Mission Initiative mission trip to Seoul, South Korea in 2009.

 

“Kayla has been a great contributor to the Patriot Cheer Team.  She has served as a base and a back-spot and has excelled in both roles for a stunt group.  Kayla has the heart of a servant; she is using her love for children as a ministry for the Lord.  Seeing her serve with the team at different service projects has been such a blessing.  Her love and sweet spirit are contagious and bless everyone she comes in contact with.  Kayla will be missed in this upcoming year, but we have been grateful to have her part of the team these last two years,” said Head Cheer Coach Skyla Alvarado.
