BOO COMPETITIVE AGAIN; White, Church


Boo Sharp In Second Scrum
Junior BOO JACKSON, listed as No. 2 quarterback, had a solid day through the air, completing 6-of-10 attempts for 66 yards in the second scrimmage of training camp Saturday for the University of Ohio Bobcats in Athens, Ohio.
Emphasis was on the running game but quarterback Theo Scott, listed No. 1 at the position, connected on 4-of-6 pass attempts, including a 25-yard scoring strike, while also running for 27 yards on five carries.

White Keeps Hitting

CHRIS WHITE continued his hot hitting with an RBI double Saturday in three trips for the West Michigan Whitecaps of the Midwest League. This came on the heels of a 3-for-3 night on Friday.

Church in Action Again

RYAN CHURCH felt well enough today to play in his second straight game for the minor league Gulf Coast League Mets. Church served as DH once again, but this time was not pulled after five innings. He batted four times, garnered no hits but drew a base on balls, while striking out twice. Church is expected to spend at least a week in the GCL with his physical condition monitored closely as he continues to recover from post-concussion syndrome.
