ON CAMPUS: Jacksonville Cannons The Jacksonville Cannons are Jacksonville’s very own professional Ultimate Frisbee team, a franchise in the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL). The AUDL is comprised of 24 teams, 20 in the US and 4 in Canada. The AUDL has existed for six years, with the South Division joining three years ago. South Division teams include: Jacksonville Cannons, Atlanta Hustle, Austin Sol, Raleigh Flyers, Dallas Roughnecks and Nashville NightWatch. The Cannons play 14 regular season games, 7 away and 7 home, played at The Bolles School’s football stadium. The game is played on a football field, but with 20-yard end zones starting at the football 10-yard line. The game is four quarters of 12 minutes each. Active rosters are 20 players deep with seven of those players on the field for each team at a time. Ultimate Frisbee is action packed and full of highlights - in fact, the Cannons have already been on SportsCenter once this season!

Si Woo Kim

Leonard Fournette

THE PLAYERS Championship winner was the youngest to win the event at TPC Sawgrass at 21 years of age. Adam Scott had won the 2004 PLAYERS at the age of 23. Kim beat the best field in golf with a tremendous weekend of play. He made just one bogey in the final 36 holes to win by three shots.

The Jacksonville Jaguars made LSU running back Leonard Fournette the first pick in this year’s draft. Fournette ran for more than 3,800 yards and scored 40 rushing touchdowns while in college. Fournette joins a Jaguars backfield that includes TJ Yeldon and Chris Ivory.

Cam Robinson

Blayne Barber

The Jaguars drafted their future left tackle with their second-round pick. Robinson played his college football at Alabama. As of now, the plan is for Robinson to compete with Branden Albert for the starting left tackle job. Robinson was projected by some experts as a top 15 selection and the Jags were able to get him in the second round.

What a performance by the golfer from Lake City in THE PLAYERS. Barber almost missed the cut on Friday, but he made it on the line and wound up finishing top 20 by shooting one under par. Barber has made his last seven cuts on the PGA Tour and that included a good showing in his first PLAYERS Championship. Upload your event to iwantaBUZZ.com’s Online calendar.
