What a great way to celebrate the podcast's one year anniversary and 50th episode!

The Monarchists sit down with Jay Ingram, author of “Monarchs: Bud Metheny, Old Dominion Baseball, and the Foundational 1960s Championship Teams”, and ODU Hall of Famer, Wayne Parks and talk about Bud Metheny and the foundations of Old Dominion Baseball.

All proceeds of "Monarchs" go to a baseball scholarship endowed in the name of Jay's parents. Please order from the following link as it benefits ODU Baseball much more than purchasing at other vendors.

Jay’s interest in ODU Baseball stems from the fact that his father, John A. Ingram Jr., was a student at Old Dominion College, and a member of the baseball team from 1961-1964. Wayne, a 1996 inductee into the ODU Sports Hall of Fame, was an outstanding two-sport star in both baseball and basketball at Old Dominion. He lettered for four years in both sports, and helped lead the baseball team to the 1963 and 1964 NCAA East Regional Championship. During his four years, Parks helped the Monarchs compile a 78-17 record. Old Dominion captured three Little Eight Championships and two Mason Dixon titles during that time.
