West Barstow Little League’s Ryan Lara cut off several years of hair after promising to do so if his Junior Division All-Star team took the District 49 tournament. Well they did, and so did he.
With the Section 8 tournament arriving, former West Barstow President Jim McCall made a similar deal. He promised to shave his facial hair if the team took the Section 8 tournament. Well once again they did, but the team wanted more from McCall than just his beard. They asked him to dye his hair West Barstow colors, blue and gold, and carve a WB into the side. Well apparently McCall can’t say no to kids.
