A block of seats in the outfield will be reserved for W&M students, alumni, faculty and staff, said Claire De Lisle, communications manager for W&M’s University Marketing and Advancement Communications.
Tribe fans will be able to cheer on the Nationals as they take on the Atlanta Braves, and W&M-themed events will be held before and during the game.
A tailgate party for W&M guests will be held behind home plate before first pitch. W&M alumni will also be a part of the Nationals’ lineup tunnel and give the players high fives as they take the field.
W&M’s griffin will even get in on the action and sprint against the Nationals’ four mascots, each former U.S. presidents.
