The Rise to The Top
Underdogs to Wonderdogs Poem
Odes to the Wonderdogs
The baseball season started just like any other season
With young guys too eager to play the game,
Please their parents, friends, and coaches
Through hard work and determination, an unlikely group of players
Ended up making a team. Their strengths overcame their weaknesses
Yet, the struggles to be the World Series Champions threatened them all
How to be the top dogs without the team's best pitcher?
How to advance to the College World Series Championships
Without winning the Western Athletic Conference Tournament?
The best underdog story needed a writer and the organized drive
Of dedicated players such as Tommy Mendonca, Steve Detwiler
"It's mind over matter. It's just a little pain...
The Pain is temporary. Pride is forever," said Detwiler
In the end, we, Americans, like underdog stories
We like the coming from behind to win it all
Congratulations to the Fresno State Bulldogs
For making a University, two sister cities and a Nation proud!
It was the preview of one of the greatest underdog stories
That this nation would know in just one year
Barack Obama made history by becoming the 44th President of the U.S.A
Indeed, the seeds of victory and success are spread in small communities
Such as Fresno and Clovis, CA. You can see them at Fresno State every season too!
