Rufus Alexander - former All-American Linebacker at OU - enjoyed a day of golf at the Fountainhead Creek Golf Club this Saturday June 16. Alexander spent the day golfing at Fountainhead with former OU teammate/current Gore Pirate Head Football Coach Lee Blankenship along with multiple Gore Football Boosters. Alexander, a native of Baton Rouge Louisiana, was an All-American Linebacker at OU before being drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in 2007. Rufus signed autographs and played golf at Fountainhead before heading to Gore to speak at a Gore Football Dinner.
"These men have done so much for our team and our community. I'm very proud to be able to give back to them." - Lee Blankenship, Head Football Coach Gore High School |
