Our beloved song leader extraordinaire has written a book that chronicles the life, times, stories and achievements of U-M sports legend Don Lund.  A nine-letter winner in baseball, basketball and football, Lund began a professional baseball career with the Dodgers the same year they signed Jackie Robinson, later played for the St. Louis Browns and the Tigers and ran the Tigers’ farm system before returning to Michigan to coach the baseball team.  Ed Hood, a member of Don’s 1962 NCAA champs, will introduce Jim and Don, and the stories will roll.
