Snapshot of a Legacy: Frank Sims & the 2000-2001 Championship Team is a new Spring Hill College Archives & Special Collections Library Exhibit.  Senior English major Madison Jancas created the exhibit as a part of her Archives Internship under the guidance of Katy Osborne, Special Collections Support and Resource Sharing Coordinator. The exhibit, Snapshot of a Legacy, has a companion exhibit in the Arthur R. Outlaw Recreation Center.  Both are available to access freely.

During her internship in the fall semester, Madison Jancas processed a 1,400 item collection related to baseball.  Specifically, the collection focuses on baseball at Spring Hill College during the Frank Sims era, so her exhibit is a snapshot through the lens of the 2000-2001 championship team. Madison compiled the final set of archival materials and then then designed the exhibit.

Snapshot of a Legacy: Frank Sims & the 2000-2001 Championship Team will have a formal exhibit opening on Thursday, February 6, 2025, at 6:00 PM on the second floor of Burke Library, outside of the Archives and Special Collections. We invite all students, faculty, staff, and alumni interested to join us.  Immediately after the exhibit opens, we will hold an Archives and Special Collections Open House. Visitors can view the Frank Sims Photo Collection during this event and speak with both Madison Jancas and Katy Osborne during the Open House.

The exhibit will remain available throughout the Spring 2025 Semester.
