VYPE Campus Corner: Gordon talks about building Spring Woods track

The legend of Memorial’s Grant Sperandio started early — and he’s lived up to the hype.

“We had heard things about an incoming freshman who was really good, but do you know how many times I’ve heard that?” Memorial coach Jeremy York said. “Well, the first day of tryouts he throws a ball across the infield at 92 miles per hour. We had him warm up in the bullpen, but we couldn’t put him against other freshmen — so he threw to varsity hitters. Yep, he was the real deal… and he’s only gotten better.”
