For Immediate Release:

 

PULASKI, VIRGINIA - Two new promotions have recently been announced within the Front Office staff at Calfee Park in Pulaski, Virginia. Blair Hoke will lead Calfee Park as General Manager of the Pulaski Yankees and Jade Campbell will hold the position of Sports Marketing and Assistant Manager.

Both Hoke and Campbell were part of the 2015 Inaugural Season that led to an Eastern Division Title and an overall attendance record that had more than doubled from the previous year.

Hoke is a graduate of Radford University and has spent the last two years in the Minor League Baseball system. She received a Management Trainee opportunity with the Pulaski Mariner's before becoming the Co-General Manager of the Pulaski Yankees. Her enthusiasm for sports and experience in the MilB system will be critical to Calfee Park's success for the upcoming season

Hoke is quoted after accepting her new role; "There is not a better time to be a Pulaski Yankees fan than right now. We now have a solid year under our belt here at Calfee Park and 2016 can only get better. I'm looking forward to continuing the path of growth that Pulaski has already experienced."

Assisting Hoke is Jade Campbell - a Virginia Tech Undergraduate with an emphasis in Sports Marketing. Campbell spent the last summer as a Marketing Intern with the Pulaski Yankees, where she operated Social Media Responsibilities and aided with community outreach.

2016 will be another year of growth for Calfee Park and Pulaski, as the Owners will be re-vamping the seating sections, box suites, and adding a new Front Office building for staff members. In addition to the renovations, for the first time in history, Calfee Park will host the Virginia Tech Men's Baseball Team as they play Radford University on April 12th, 2016 and Duke University on April 22nd, 2016.  

 

The Pulaski Yankees are a Short-Season Rookie League team in association with Minor League Baseball. 2016 marks their 2nd year as a New York Yankees affiliate and 2015 Eastern Division Champions (Appalachian League).
