JACKSON, MS- The Millsaps Majors baseball team will honor former Major outfield and pitcher Tait Hendrix Saturday, March 28th against the Centre Colonels. 

Hendrix (B.S., 2009) played for the Majors from 2006-2009 and tragically passed away last summer in an motorcycle accident. 

The Majors will officially honor Hendrix with a ceremony starting at 11:30AM on the 28th, prior to the Majors' noon double header with the Colonels. Millsaps will officially retire Hendrix's number 14, which has been hanging on the left field wall this season. After the ceremony, teammates are invited to enjoy lunch that will be provided. 

Hendrix was a four-time Academic All-Conference student-athlete and was a two-time All-Conference player. He became only the second player in Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) history to make the All-Tournament team as a player and as a pitcher when he accomplished the feat in 2008.
