May Alumnus of the Month: Glen Zatz
Congratulations to Glen Zatz for being our May Alumnus of the Month! Glen played for Michigan back in the 1970’s where he quickly learned to apply his high school pole vaulting skills on the rugby field, and became quite an elusive back. He continued playing rugby until 2019, when he was the only 64 year old on the field, and realized it was probably time to hang up his cleats.
