MEMPHIS, Tenn. – One of the best to ever suit up for the Memphis Tigers baseball program will be honored Saturday prior to the Tigers' game vs. Tulane. Chad Zurcher, who played for Memphis from 2008-11 and earned numerous accolades on and off the field, will have his jersey retired before the matchup with the Green Wave.
"It's crazy, it's just unbelievable," said Zurcher. "I had one offer coming out of high school and it was from Coach Rock. I respected and trusted the coaching staff so much that it was an easy decision to join the Tigers and it worked out great with an unbelievable experience and lifelong friendships.
