The Phillies have announced they will decide whether to put short stop Jimmy Rollins on the 15-day disabled list this week. Rollins has been on fire so far this season batting .391 and an on base percentage of .516.
Rollins has been a crucial element to the Phillies success so far this year, as the team is currently 6-1 after the first week of the season. If Rollins does get placed on the disabled list, which is very likely, Juan Castro will take over as short stop.

After a loved one passes, we tend to keep objects that remind us of them. These objects are the primary subject of Hannah Burr’s “Placeholders” currently in display in the Ganser Library.

Athlete of the Week – Jenna Craig
How long have you been playing basketball?
“I’ve been playing basketball since I was in third grade. I started playing year-round once I got to middle school and continued throughout high school and college.”
How did you become involved with basketball?
“When I was in elementary school, I had a friend whose dad was the head coach for the high school basketball team. He was the one who first got me involved with basketball and I’ve been playing since then. My grandpa also played basketball when he was in high school, so we would shoot around a lot when we were together. I actually ended up with the same number jersey that he had when he played.”
