Former Horns in the pros
College football is awesome. I could watch it and talk about it all day, but Horns and former Horns are having success in other arenas as well.
*Justin Leonard: The former Longhorn golfer was a member of the winning 2005 American President’s Cup team over the weekend in Virginia. Leonard had a solid competition going 3-1-1 that was capped by a 4 & 3 singles victory on Sunday over Tim Clark.
*Derrick Johnson: The Kansas City Chief’s rookie is off to a great start, 17 tackles and a forced fumble. He could very easily be Defensive Rookie of the Year at season’s end.
*Other NFL Horns of note: Casey Hampton (Steelers), Shaun Rogers (Lions), Nathan Vasher (Bears), Priest Holmes (Chiefs), Christy Simms (Bucs)
*Roger Clemens: He seems to get better with age. At 43, Clemens is 12-8 with a sub .200 ERA and will be a key to the Astros’ playoff success.
*Huston Street: The A’s are hoping for the postseason. In his first full season, Street is trying to take them there. His stats speak loudly: 5 – 1 with 22 saves and a 1.66 ERA.
*Kyle McCulloch: This current Longhorn right hander finished off a spectacular year by begin name to the 2005 College Summer All-America squad as selected by Baseball America. In 25 innings of work, McCulloch went 4-0 with 22Ks in 25 innings and an ERA of 1.44.
