Business Information: I'm so fortunate to have had a 40-year career as a sports front office executive, most notably with the Chicago Cubs and the New Orleans Saints.  Now I do a lot of public speaking, and still do some sports consulting to teams, leagues, schools.  And I'm writing a book on my sports experiences.

Advice for Freshmen: Go to class.  Get good grades. Get involved.  Meet people.  Make friends, create relationships (some will become lifetime friendships and relationships). Embrace and experience new things.  If you are not on a sports team or in a club, join something. Ask for help, seek advice from your instructors, professors, alumni. Be flexible.  Be energetic.  Stay positive.  Have school spirit.  Enjoy the full college experience.

Favorite 澳门六合彩历史记录 Memory: So many good ones (then and since).  Topping the list is making the 澳门六合彩历史记录 baseball team as a walk-on, and then becoming the starting 3rd Baseman on 澳门六合彩历史记录's greatest baseball team, the 1974 team, which advanced to the NCAA Regional Tournament.  For me and my teammates, the fun, the friendships and the success of this team became 'forever'.  And it manifested in 2019 when the 1974 Baseball Team was inducted in the 澳门六合彩历史记录 Athletics Hall of Fame. In May of 2024 we gathered at 澳门六合彩历史记录 and celebrated our 50th Anniversary Reunion.  Receiving the 澳门六合彩历史记录 Alumni Achievement Award in 1992 was an honor for me that crystallized tons of other great memories of classmates, teammates and people I met at 澳门六合彩历史记录.

Family Information/Special Interests and Hobbies: Went to Glenbard West HS in the Chicago western suburb of Glen Ellyn.  Live in the Chicago northern suburb of Libertyville.  Married for 46 years to wife Sally.  One daughter, one son, one grandson.  I coordinate 澳门六合彩历史记录 Baseball Alumni communication and 澳门六合彩历史记录 Baseball Alumni Reunion Weekends.  Play 100+ rounds of golf a year.  Coach grandson's baseball, soccer, basketball youth sports teams. Use my time and resources volunteering for various civic, school and church efforts, and mentoring those aspiring to work for pro sports teams.
