DALLAS (May 5, 2005) -- Mavs Man performed a dunk show for the students of St. Pius X School in Dallas, winners of the third annual Mavs Spirit Contest sponsored by Academy Sports and Outdoors and UPN 21. Over 500 kids, grades K-8 were in attendance and as you can see, they had a GREAT time!

The school held a pep rally with 500 students to take first prize in the Spirit Week contest. The principal was awarded two tickets to every remaining 2005 playoff home game, and the school received a $500 Academy Sports and Outdoors gift card and a Mavs Man appearance.
