Tigers to recognize Jason and Caitlin Motte before game
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The University of Memphis baseball team will recognize Jason and Caitlin Motte and the Motte Foundation prior to Saturday's 2 p.m. game against Baylor at FedExPark. The family will be honored on the field and deliver a ceremonial first pitch before the game.
Jason and Caitlin created the Motte Foundation in 2010, raising money for cancer research, all while providing comfort and care where there is a need for those affected, either directly or indirectly, by cancers of all kinds.
The seed for the Jason Motte Foundation was planted in the fall of 2010 when Jason and Caitlin Motte asked, "what can we do to help?" At the time, Caitlin's grandfather, Lynn Doyle, was a cancer patient at The West Clinic in Memphis, Tennessee. Jason and Caitlin saw a sign that mentioned a need for blankets and wondered what more they could do to help. That question led to the formation of the Strike Out Cancer with Jason Motte Foundation and several projects including the annual Strike Out Cancer with Jason Motte.
Motte has been a friend of the Memphis baseball program for several years, spending the offseason training at FedExPark and in the Babe Howard Training Facility.
