Cowboys shortstop Donnie Walton grew up, literally, at ORU's J.L. Johnson Stadium, with the stadium serving as his playground, frolicking with the players and hanging around his "Pops," Rob Walton, the head coach.
Donnie was always going to be a Golden Eagle, too, playing for his dad and fulfilling a dream.
Then Rob joined Josh Holliday to form a dynamic duo at OSU, and soon Donnie followed.
Still, he's always held a special place in his heart for ORU, and cherished the games played back "home."
Tonight, he goes home one more time when the Cowboys take on ORU at J.
