President's Message
San Diego Trojans,
Almost 400 USC fans fought the rain and the traffic to share a wonderful evening of Trojan sports with Pete Carroll and Tim Floyd, the Frick & Frack of college coaching. The lovely and gracious Lindsay Soto moderated a very informative, and funny, evening as the coaches conspired to fire up the faithful as we wait for next season.
Keep your fingers crossed, but it sounds like, if the athletes play up to their potential, that we should have great seasons in both football and basketball. But, the best part of the evening was the quality time that both Pete and Tim spent with each and every table and guest. And, the highlight was the attendence of both John Robinson and Bob Boyd. (We even made Scott Wolf's column as a result.)
The Trojan Club of San Diego was honored to present its Don Clausen Memorial Award to our volunteer of the year, Carol Wootton. Carol has been the greatest help, running our raffles, participating in all our activities, and helping in every way with a smile on her face. She's an absolute pleasure, a great Trojan, and unquestionably our Don Clausen Memorial Award honoree.
Pat Park was named the winner of our Marv Goux Award for the TCSD board member who most emulates the spirit of Marv Goux. Pat was traveling and we'll make a big fuss over him at our first football luncheon on August 22.
So, all in all, it was a great week for the Trojan Club of San Diego. We spent Sunday manning our annual water station for the Rock and Roll Marathon and then Wednesday night with two of our favorite coaches.
Things slow down a bit for the next two months, but football starts in August and we already have Pete Arbogast, Ben Malcomson, and JJ Jackson lined up as speakers for our fall programs and John Robinson said he was available if he wasn't on the road, so watch the website and make sure you save the dates of all our fall football luncheons. Information regarding our rooter buses to the games is also posted on the website.
Have a great summer! Fight On! Beat the Cavaliers!

President 2007-2009
