Nearly 160 members of the Grace Christian University community gathered Tuesday night at the West Michigan Whitecaps. The annual event was a powerful reminder of what it means to support students who are called to make an eternal impact.<\/em><\/p>\n

A Great Night at the Ballpark<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The evening began the way many great gatherings do: around food. As guests arrived at LMCU Ballpark<\/a>, they were welcomed to the indoor Pepsi Deck, where the smell of grilled burgers and hot dogs filled the air. With burgers, hot dogs, chips, and cookies on the menu, it felt just like a summer ballgame should. Stories were shared, and people shared memories of their time at Grace and caught up on this latest life events with lifelong friends.<\/p>\n

A Welcome From The President<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Before the first pitch, President Kemper welcomed everyone to the event. He offered a sincere thank-you to everyone who made the evening possible and then shared a perspective that stayed with people throughout the night. He compared each act of generosity to a swing of a baseball bat. \u201cNot every swing results in a home run,\u201d he said, \u201cbut each one gets us closer to that moment when a student crosses home plate, fully equipped, grounded in faith, and ready to serve Christ for the rest of their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grace’s Impact\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of those students, Kyrsten Nolen<\/a>, took the microphone and shared what her time at Grace has meant to her. Her words reminded everyone that the university isn\u2019t just teaching courses; it\u2019s walking alongside students as they grow in their identity, character, and purpose. Following Kyrsten, the Hendrick’s, a couple who have been faithfully giving to Grace for decades stood up to share why they continue to invest in the university. They spoke about their passion for Grace\u2019s mission and how giving today helps prepare future church leaders, counselors, teachers, missionaries, and professionals who will carry Christ into every corner of the world. They spoke with joy. Giving to Grace, they said, is one of the best investments they\u2019ve ever made.<\/p>\n

First Pitch\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As the game began, Grace student Royce Freiburger<\/a> stood on the pitcher\u2019s mound. With confidence, he threw the first pitch of the night.<\/p>\n

Cheers followed, and the crowd settled in. The players took their places and the first inning got underway.<\/p>\n

Whitecaps Dominate<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As the night continued, the Whitecaps<\/a> gave the crowd plenty to cheer for. They extended their winning streak to nine games with a 9-2 win over the Lake County Captains Tuesday night at LMCU Ballpark. Detroit Tigers prospects Kevin McGonigle and Josue Brice\u00f1o led the charge with back-to-back home runs in the sixth inning. Brice\u00f1o went 4-for-4, just a triple short of the cycle, while McGonigle added three RBI and is now batting .488 through 11 games.<\/p>\n

The Whitecaps jumped to an early 4-0 lead with Brice\u00f1o\u2019s RBI double. Starter Joe Miller held the Captains to one run over five innings. After the sixth-inning homers, Lake County answered with a solo shot in the seventh, but West Michigan added two more runs to seal the win.<\/p>\n

Miller improved to 3-1. The Whitecaps now sit at 37-15 and lead the league in home runs. Their playoff magic number is down to seven.<\/p>\n

Later in the game\u00a0 As the sun dipped lower and a breeze picked up, guests moved from the indoor dining area to the upper outdoor deck to watch the game with a great view of the entire field.<\/p>\n

Mascot Appearance<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Partway through the evening, Grace\u2019s mascot, Tig, made a surprise appearance, bringing high fives, laughs, and plenty of photo ops. Later, the West Michigan Whitecaps\u2019 own Frankie the Pig joined the fun, entertaining guests with his signature dance moves and antics. Both mascot moments added a memorable touch to an already special night.<\/p>\n

Giving That Goes a Long Way<\/strong><\/h3>\n

By the end of the night, over $26,000 had been raised to support Grace Christian University\u2019s mission. That number reflects more than just dollars. It reflects commitment in the next generation of students who will go out to serve as a courageous ambassadors for Christ. The mission is ongoing, and you can still be a part of it.

More Than Just a Game<\/strong><\/h3>\n
