The Unstoppables will play their final game of the 2018 season on June 23 at the Rusk baseball fields at 9 a.m. The team is a special needs team from Rusk that is winding up their second season.

“We got with the Rusk Youth Sports Association and asked if they would allow us to start up a special needs team,” said Melissa Robinson, coach. “They were all on board with us, so the team started last year.”

The team plays against different organizations in the community, with their game Saturday being played against a group of local marines.

“We would love for the community to come out and support the team and watch their final game,” said Robinson.

The team has 14 plus players and two coaches, Robinson and Hope Oliver.
