History: Senior Ed McLarty and sophomore Whitey Adams each hit .340 for the 1969 Ole Miss Rebels baseball team. Adams' nine homers were closely followed by senior Lee Moore's eight round trippers. Junior John Shaw's twenty-two stolen bases and sophomore Archie Manning's eighteen thefts (Yes, the College Football legend and NFL star, Dad to Peyton and Eli Manning - Manning) sparked the Rebel scoring punch which led to an SEC Championship in 1969. NCAA District lll Coach of the year Tom Swayze was at the helm.

Measuring Guide
We offer three kinds of ballcap visors:
Pre-1940 ballcaps were made with soft visors so players could fold them up and put them in their back pockets. Later visors were done in standard (stiff visor) or short (also a soft visor). Check the product details to see which type of visor each cap has.
