Jordan is a fine young man, extraordinary athlete, and a great student. In addition to the accomplishments listed above, Jordan has a 3.8 GPA! No small feat given the number of activites, etc that Jordan has on his plate! Congratulations Jordan! I'll be an Ohio State fan as long as you're there!

Congrats and best wishes to Jordan. The Bucks are getting a good one. And, you won't be reading about him in the papers for OFF-the field antics.

Of course, it will be worth it and I believe a few members of the Trinity Community will attend as well. I have been honored to watch him grow these past four seasons. The successes have far exceeded any normal expectations and I am happy the "ring collection" has grown every year!!!!!
