SRV Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Brian Griese, son of hall of famer Bob Griese. A-Rod apparently tried out for our varsity baseball as a freshman and we didn't accept him so he went to another school, and A-Rod holds a basketball tournament in our gym [Pretty odd] every year and he attends for at least one night. The tournament is high school basketball teams from all over the country and its lasts like 3 nights. Frank Gores cousin is our RB and I am pretty sure he will be famous one day.
