This past spring, friends and family gathered to honor the memory of David Elliott ’87 and to celebrate his lasting impact on 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 #########’s baseball program with the dedication of an outfield wall in his name.
During his time at 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 #########, Elliott was an exceptional athlete and teammate, earning four varsity letters as a member of both the football (1983-86) and baseball team (1984-87).
A few months after David passed, his two closest friends reached out to his wife, Lisa, with the idea of honoring him through the baseball program. They recruited David’s teammates, fraternity brothers, and friends to raise funds, and they were amazed by the response — over 100 people contributed in his memory!
With Lisa and their son, Drew, and daughters, Annie and Caroline, in attendance, President Adam Weinberg and former Associate Vice President and Director of Athletics Nan Carney-DeBord ’80 unveiled the David Elliott Outfield Wall, stretching 750 feet, during the team’s home opener.
“The dedication of the David Elliott Outfield Wall was such a meaningful day for my family,” said Lisa. “必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### did a fantastic job making the day special for family, friends, and his teammates. It was heartwarming to be there with people who knew David and wanted to remember him.”
