The two players came to San Marcos in 2017 and have grown together ever since. Now they're honoring their late coach.
SAN MARCOS, Texas — Dalton Shuffield and Wesley Faison have made this season a memorable one for the Texas State baseball team.
“Having this season in my last year, it's pretty special," Shuffield said. "Going out with a bang, I guess.”“I started playing with Dalton when I was 15, and then we both committed to Texas State," Faison said. "We’ve been playing here for five years together. We've been roommates the whole time too.”Shuffield and Faison were first teammates on the South Texas Sliders, one of the premier travel baseball teams in the state.
Something Scott Mayer had a lot to do with. Mayer founded the Sliders organization and coached Shuffield and Faison on their U-17 team. Mayer commited suicide in May 2018. It was Faison and Shuffield's freshman year. They've been playing for Scotty ever since.
