SPRINGFIELD, Mo.– Outfielder Cole Dunham was named as the James R. Spalding Sportsmanship honoree for Drury baseball. Each team in the Great Lakes Valley Conference submits an honoree to the league.
 
These representatives were chosen by their respective coaches to have distinguished themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behavior this season. These individuals must also be in good academic standing and have demonstrated good citizenship outside of the sports-competition setting. The honorees are now eligible to become one of their school's two overall James R. Spalding Sportsmanship Award winners, which will be announced on Monday, May 18.
 
Dunham was in his senior year majoring in Marketing and Management. The Lee's Summit, Missouri native was a four-year letterman for the Panthers.
 
Drury's baseball team finished with a 13-7 record after their season was halted on March 12 due to concerns regarding the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
