ABOUT OUR BEAR CLAW!
Native Americans use symbols & designs to represent specific ideas or cultural expressions. The bear is a powerful guardian; physical strength & leadership! The bear symbolizes sweetness of life and introspection. The bear claw was used to summon the power of the animal. The bear tracks can signify strength and well being, leadership and authority.

GLIMPSE FROM THE PAST
ACADEMIC RBI T-SHIRT REWARDS


Pictured here is our 9U players and winter workout members with Coach Ron Dawson, who logs our report card grades. Our 2010 T-shirt was called Coach Dawson's Scorebook so we reinforce our leading, academic tradition with youth sports! Grade scorebook RBI style for A's and B's, just like RBI in baseball. Great report cards! 10U also earned their t-shirts. LWP will continue to promote education throughout 2012.



COMMUNITY SERVICE

Over the past few years, the Lincoln-Way Prospects entire organization has presented over 6,000 gifts to Children's Memorial Hospital. On December 3, 2011. The players will earn their level/rung distinction from the Character Nation student-athlete leadership program and add to those numbers. These continue to be the "stats" that matter.
