Big weekend for a couple of professional athletes with jackson Ties:
Napoleon grad and PGA Tour pro Brian Stuard was back at the Zurich Classic this weekend, a tournament he won a year ago. This years tournament featured a team format and found Stuard paired with Chris Stroud. The duo finished at -18 in a tie for 11th place.
Lumen Christi grad and U of M baseball star Ryan LaMarre made news last week by being traded to Oakland and then called up to the majors. LaMarre was in the line-up for the A’s both Saturday and Sunday but went 0-6 with 2 strikeouts and a walk. How long LaMarre will be on the major league roster remains to be seen. Rajai Davis is due back from injury this week and reclaim his spot in CF.
