Jesuit alum Jordan Spieth didn’t have much time to dwell on a tough weekend at the HPC Byron Nelson Championship.

After finishing tied for 68th place a 5-over on Sunday, the first-year pro turned right around today and headed to a British Open qualifier at Gleneagles Country Club. He will also throw out the first pitch prior to Tuesday’s game between the Texas Rangers and the Oakland A’s at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.

Spieth will also go to Fort Worth to compete in the Colonial beginning on Thursday.

It’s that time again. Saturday will mark Hockaday’s 99th commencement at 7pm. The event will be white as ever. Tradition is for the seniors to wear white dresses with a white with a rim full of flowers. One nice thing about this tradition? Not having to worry about what to wear!

It looks like this weekend is all about the kids. Here’s a couple of options for some family fun.

In the words of the JCC, it’s time to “get your schmear on.” This year’s annual Bagel Run happens on Sunday morning, and is a fun way to get the whole family moving. The fun starts at 7:45 a.m. with an “exclusive Harlem Shake  warm-up followed by the “kids k” and then the 5- and 10k runs. The carb-loading begins immediately after the runs end, with a bagel buffet and awards presentation.

At 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, bring your kids to Bookmarks in NorthPark Center, where native-Argentinian Miss Lilia will lead a special Spanish story time. At 2 p.m. in Bookmarks, Debbie Day will take present “Jubilee Jamboree,” where she takes kids on a trip down memory lane to the 1950′s, and then back to the future.

The Susan G. Komen 3-Day walk won’t come to Dallas until early November, but event organizers suggest participants begin training for the 60-mile trek well in advance — as in, now.

At 7 a.m. Saturday, New Balance on Northwest Parkway will host an hour-long training walk followed by a “Get Trained Workshop” to discuss proper shoes, clothes, and preparation for the big event (with product pitches worked into the mix, one figures). A seasoned 3-Day walker will also take questions from the crowd.
