GENERAL MANAGER

Larry Gill

Larry Gill serves as the inaugural General Manager of the Meridian Blues, bringing strong local roots, professional leadership experience, and a deep commitment to community engagement as the franchise launches its debut season in the Mid America League.

A Meridian native, Gill is a graduate of Meridian High School, Meridian Community College, and Mississippi State University’s Meridian Campus, where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree. His lifelong ties to the community position him to lead the Blues with both pride and purpose.

Gill previously spent six years licensed in the insurance industry, working directly with individuals and families in a customer-focused, service-driven role. His relationship-based approach and attention to detail now translate into building a first-class experience for Blues fans, sponsors, and community partners.

He also serves as President of the Meridian Youth Baseball Association, helping guide and grow the game for children ages 7–12. His passion for youth development and community connection aligns with the Blues’ mission of creating a team Meridian can rally around — both on and off the field.

BRAND AMBASSADOR

Dwight Lowdermilk

As a Blues Ambassador, Dwight is responsible for the game day volunteers, host family coordination, concession staffing coordination, national anthem singers scheduling, field of dream team's scheduling and coordinating other game day activities.

Dwight was raised in Memphis, which interestingly was the home of the Memphis Blues minor league team from 1968 to 1976. He is a St. Louis Cardinal fan, who named his son Brock after St. Louis MLB hall of famer Lou Brock.

Dwight enlisted in the Navy in 1975, spent 4 years on a nuclear submarine, graduated from Alabama-Birmingham with a BS in Computer Science in 1983, was commissioned as a supply corps officer in the Navy reserves in 1985, and retired as a Lieutenant Commander in 1996.

They like to travel to concerts, to the beach, and visit children in California and Tennessee.

BRAND AMBASSADOR

Randy Griffeth

"The life you live today determines the legacy you leave tomorrow." 

Randy Griffeth serves as Team Ambassador for the Meridian Blues, bringing nearly three decades of leadership, service, and mission-focused team building to the organization. He currently serves as a U.S. Navy Command Master Chief, where he advises senior leadership and leads Sailors in high-responsibility environments that demand discipline, resilience, and unity. Those same principles drive his vision for the Meridian Blues — not simply as a baseball team, but as a catalyst for community pride and regional momentum. 

A proud Collinsville resident with deep roots across Lauderdale County, Randy is actively engaged in public service and community initiatives throughout the Queen City. As Team Ambassador, he works to unite local businesses, military families, veterans, youth programs, and civic leaders around a shared purpose: building something lasting for Meridian. He believes the Meridian Blues represent more than a game — they represent opportunity, leadership, and a rallying point that brings the entire region together
