Rossville City Park passed the dress rehearsal last
weekend by hosting the Mike Mullens Memorial

the playing surfaces, five new pitching mounds and the

tournament of the season will bring more than 24
teams to Rossville starting today.

City Park will host the Border
Wars baseball tournament, with
teams scheduled to appear from throughout the South.
