Dubyas

A softball team in the sports outlet, glendora, sunday 5pm league now known as Diversified Rack and Shelving. The team has been in operation since 2005, and is considered a reestablishment of the THers, the first organized softball team from the current ownership group.

The team plays home games at "The Swamp" a rather low and humid corner of Hartford Crossings Park. For several early years the team played all of its games on the road.

Starting in 2007 the Dubyas gained major sponsorship(the Dubyas began, as did the THers, w/o a major sponsor and leaned on the players for yearly fees.), the team from then on would be known as Diversified Rack and Shelving.

During the first year of sponsorship the team changed its colors as well, going from the UPS brown and white scripted 'Dubyas' to the green and orange of the U with block letters. The following year the colors changed to navy blue and white, and then changed again in 2009 to Texas Tech red and black (it must be noted that in preseason planning for the Dubyas five year anniversary, the idea of bring back the brown and white jerseys and introducing a team slogan 'going back to brown and not fucking around' was considered before the red and black was ultimately chosen).

The team now is one of the elite teams in the division and are well know for their excellent defense, superb pitching and slugging ability. Older teams in the league are on record with statements such as "these guys can hit","this is a strong team", "young team, good hitters, great defense". Currently stocked with a strong starting lineup, above average bench lineup, and no nonsense coaches, this team should find success in 2010 and in the years to come.
