\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Elmer \u201cStoney\u201d Stone, \u201972, made a lasting impact on his teammates during his tenure on the Mountaineer baseball team. He paid it forward by supporting countless student-athletes through the EOU Foundation. Stone, who passed away in Kentucky at 80 years old the January, was a big women\u2019s basketball fan. He donated to the women\u2019s basketball team, as well as the newly reinstated baseball team. A right fielder, Stone was born in Kentucky and attended Powell Junior College before transferring to EOU in 1969. He was named the 1970 Honorable Mention All League, and is dearly missed by his former teammates. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
