Time Set for Ron Polk Statue Unveil
April 05, 2023 | Baseball
STARKVILLE – Mississippi State will unveil a statue of Ron Polk at 3 p.m. Friday, April 14, outside the Adkerson Plaza Entrance at Dudy Noble Field prior to the contest against Ole Miss on Super Bulldog Weekend.
The ceremony will take place prior to the gates opening for the Friday night contest and is open to the public to attend.
Polk – now a special assistant to the athletic director who, in total, spent nearly three decades of his life as the head coach of MSU baseball – is a Bulldog legend. Truth be told, even that label sells Polk short.
He won 1,373 career games. He's had six different Hall of Fame inductions. He guided eight different teams to the College World Series – six of those being Mississippi State squads.
It's tough to find the words to do Polk justice. So, the Bulldogs will instead turn to bronze. For more on the statue, click here.
