Former Athlete Honored

Ambrosian Bob Jurevitz scored 414 points in his career as a football player, with a school-record 64 touchdowns from 1982-85. Suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the former Fighting Bee was recently honored by the St. Ambrose football program. A framed No. 44 jersey will hang permanently above the entrance to the locker room, and a team award will be created in his name. Watch a video of the award presentation.
