TSRA Service Rifle Championship Trophy.

  The TSRA has a trophy for the Highpower Rifle Championship, the Ike Lee trophy.  It's got the TSRA Bull on it.  Nice.  But there isn't a trophy for the Service Rifle Championship.  The SR director, Dave Wilson decided that needs to change.  Some inspired folks just bought a statue for the top of the trophy today.  The statue is a Marine running with his Garand under Japanese fire on Okinawa.  Wilburn Spiller has been approached about building the base.  The statue will be at Panola this Saturday during the match.
  The donors plan to donate the entire trophy to the TSRA.  Since they are donating it, they get to name the trophy.  They think the Rick Crawford Trophy sounds damn nice.
  If anyone else wants to get in on the trophy deal, they need to get on the train, because it's leaving the station.
