Bucky Burgau turns 71 today and is just now entering his prime. He could jump out of bed right now and throw 45 minutes of batting practice and throw nothing but strikes!
@CobberSID
@CobberBaseball
A great example of a never give up mentality. When he stepped foot on campus as a freshman the chances of him having an impact on the field were slim. But through hard work and dedication he turned himself into a conference starting pitcher.
