Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan and long-time friend C.J. Stewart, co-founder of L.E.A.D., Inc. and L.E.A.D. Center for Youth, co-hosted the inaugural Breaking Barriers Classic on July 13, 2021 at South Forsyth High School.
The baseball game included players from the Georgia Bombers, which Duncan’s son plays for, and the L.E.A.D. Ambassadors. The teams played 7 innings and drafted players from a combined roster to give players from different backgrounds the opportunity to expand their perspectives. The players wore the jersey number “44” in honor of MLB Hall of Famer, Hank Aaron, who passed away earlier that year. After first meeting while playing collegiate baseball, Duncan and Stewart had long wanted to get back on the field together. The game was used as an opportunity to talk with the players about civic engagement and to share valuable life lessons they learned while playing baseball.
