Kal Segrist, was Texas Tech's second-longest tenured baseball coach. Segrist guided the Red Raiders for 16 seasons where he collected 317 victories from 1968-83 which at the time marked a school record for wins. His 317 wins remain second all-time in Texas Tech baseball history.
He made his major league debut with the Yankees on July 16, 1952. He also played one season for the Baltimore Orioles in 1955. He is buried in the Hico, Tx cemetery.

To find the box enter the Cemetery at the entrance that is to the right of the flag pole. Make an immediate right, then a left on the first road.

Go all the way to the back and park. In Block 7 find markers for Elliott and Driskell. Walk between the markers toward a bush beside a short cement post.

Box is in the base of the bush near the post.
