Lest joeywa get mad....

The Horns are in burnt orange high socks, undershirts and caps, with their home white jersey/pant combo with burnt orange letters & numbers.

UIW is grey pants with a black jersey & black cap.

Barely enough breeze blowing to rustle the flags. What little is blowing is from the NW.

There's been an Armadillo Slim sighting. Umpires be warned.
